UtahTransferGuide.org shows students how course credits earned at one college may transfer to other Utah institutions. The guide describes whether the class will be considered equivalent to a class offered by the second institution or will be treated as elective credit. How credit transfers is important: you want credit to count as a required class for the certificate or degree program you are working on.
The General Education Certificate of Completion is a great option for some students. If you complete all general education requirements but not an AS or AA degree at SLCC, you will have completed the lower-division general education requirements for a bachelor’s degree at Utah’s public colleges and universities, and Westminster College. You should request that a General Education Certificate of Completion from the Graduation Office be sent with your transcripts to your transfer school.​
