White Mountains Community College offers twenty degrees, plus professional certificates and certificates. In addition to these programs, there exist many opportunities to start your education here and continue your education with other institutions of higher education. Our students now benefit from many articulation agreements and guaranteed transfer programs to many other colleges. The transfer process can be started at any time while attending White Mountains Community College. Students may enter knowing that they plan to continue their education, or they may decide to continue their education as they work toward completion of their program here. It’s never too late; however, the sooner the process is started the easier it is to meet transfer requirements and maximize transfer credits and options.
With increased transferability of courses and programs here, greater opportunities and possibilities for continuing education now exist. The Associate in Arts curriculum is designed to offer students an opportunity to take the first two years of a liberal arts college curriculum here and transfer to four-year institutions. The General Studies curriculum offers the flexibility to take or combine courses from different majors to create a self-designed program to meet individual needs and interests and maximize transferability. Students may start these programs in the fall, spring, or summer. Grades of C or better are generally required to transfer. It is important for students interested in transferring or continuing their education to work closely with their faculty advisors, the college transfer counselor, and the institution that they plan to attend.
Recognizing the need to make the pathway to earning a college degree as simple as possible, the University System of New Hampshire and the Community College System of New Hampshire have partnered to launch NHTransfer.org, an online resource to help give students a clear understanding of which courses transfer among participating institutions. Having this information could reduce the number of courses needed to earn a degree and save students both time and money.
The NH Transfer Connections Program is a new agreement between CCSNH and USNH that guarantees students transfer admission to USNH as long as they meet designated admission criteria at the USNH institution of their choice. NHTransfer.org also has a new transfer credit database to assist students and advisors in both systems in learning not only whether but how CC courses transfer to USNH, as well as SNHU and FPU.
