Please read the following requirements and conditions governing the transfer of course credit to VSCC.

VSCC policies that affect transfer credit
Only those undergraduate courses earned at institutions that are regionally accredited or from a foreign university or college approved by the government or the official regulating agency of the country will be considered for transfer credit at Volunteer State Community College.

Recording of transfer credit on the student's permanent academic record will be completed following admission to the College and receipt of an official transcript of coursework sent directly from your previous institution.

Transfer grade point requirements
Grades are not transferable or recorded on the VSCC permanent record. You must, however, earn at least a "C" or equivalent for a course to be considered for transfer.

Courses taken to fulfill VSCC's competency requirements, English Composition I and II, or College Algebra must be completed with a minimum grade of 2.00 or "C" to satisfy the competency.

If you are repeating a course already completed at VSCC, you must receive a higher grade in the repeated class to have it considered for transfer credit.

Articulation Agreements & Guides
To encourage transfers within Tennessee, VSCC has developed many degree-specific transfer articulation agreements and guides with regionally accredited colleges and universities to assist in development of education plans for transfer students. Those can be viewed by following the links at the bottom of this page.
