I just looked at my stats from the application I sent to the UNI. I want to transfer to and it said Freshman Associate Degree Transfer. NOW WAIT A MINUTE!! I thought a 2 year college was the equivelent to your Freshman and Sophomore years at a Uni. so when I transfer I'll be classified as a junior wouldn't I?! Please tell me I'm right or I think I'm on the verge of passing out.

I graduated in December with 79 hours and a associate degree in Political Science and according to both Uni.'s I applied to I only needed over 64 hours to be classified as a junior. I have 79. Well over what is needed.What is going on?! Why am I being classified as a freshman?! Thank You

You are effectively a junior.

Well did you check to see if all those hours transferred. Just because you have the hours does not necessarly mean that the university accepted these hours toward your degree or accepted them at all for that matter to count as credit. You need to find out how many hours transferred and to do this you should call the registrars office. After you have checked this out and saw that your hours transferred correctly, call the Admissions office and see why you are classified as a Freshmen.

You have to look and see how many of your credits actually transfered! Most 2 year college classes don't count in a 4 year school. You may have a 2 year 79 hour degree, but maybe only 30 hours of that transfered into the new college.

It depends on the major that you are going towards. Possibly there are a few classes that are needed to be a junior in that program. Also, check to make sure that all of your classes transferred. They recently left out 3 of mine, and I had to call them about it. Just check at the school that you are looking to attend. Good Luck!

You need to talk to an admissions officer at the university to see how many of your credits may be transferable. The requirements are highly school-dependent, and opinion plays a much larger role than one might like.

My question: WHY aren't you on the telephone to someone at the school who can actually answer your question?

Do you have semester credit hours of quarter credit hours?

Quarter credit hours only count as 2/3 of a semester credit hour. SO your 79 would only count as 52 semester credit hours.

That depends on how many credits are required to graduate at your new school. Secondly, it depends on how much they accept. Talk to the registrar's office.

You'll be a junior transfer student. Many public universities have large percentages of transfer students so you won't be alone.
