Transferring
to HCTC
Hazard
Community and Technical College has established course equivalencies
from many institutions.
Our
Transfer
Equivalency Guide can help you determine how credit you have
completed at other institutions will transfer to HCTC.
Please
note: If you want to transfer HCTC courses to another institution,
you must confirm those equivalencies with that institution.
If
you cannot find transfer equivalency information for your particular
coursework, please contact the HCTC Registrar.
Check
back often - we regularly update our
Transfer
Equivalency Guide.
Acceptance
of Previous College Credit
The
Council on Postsecondary Education's general education transfer
policy and baccalaureate program transfer frameworks policy shall
provide the basis for an institution's policy on the acceptance
of transfer credits. The American Association of Collegiate Registrars
and Admissions Officers' “Transfer Credit Practices of Educational
Institutions” shall serve as a reference for admission of transfer
students to a technical institution and for the acceptance of transfer
credits. An applicant with previous college work seeking admission
to a KCTCS college shall submit an official transcript(s) of all
previous college work.
An
institution shall accept a student's college credit earned when
a course is taken both for high school credit and college credit.
Credit earned through a dual enrollment arrangement shall be treated
the same as credit earned in any other college course.
Degree
credit work taken at a fully accredited college or university is
recognized credit hour for credit hour. Quarter hours are recognized
as two-thirds (2/3) of a semester hour. In order to be classified
as fully accredited, a college or university must be a member of
an accrediting association.
Academic
credit from a non-accredited college or university may be obtained
by special subject examinations or may be validated by completion
of twelve (12) credit hours, excluding developmental or remedial
courses, with a grade point of at least 2.0.
