This book is the first publication to highlight and detail college transfer agreements, commonly known as articulation agreements, for over fifty of the country’s top-ranked colleges and universities.
Articulation agreements are contractual relationships between partnering schools that facilitate the transfer of course credit between institutions. Such agreements make it easier for students to transfer course credit between schools.
However, the ability to transfer credits is only half the story. While on paper a course may be considered equivalent between partnering schools there may be a major difference in cost. For example, the University of Southern California charges $1,249 per credit hour while Los Angeles City College charges $20 per credit hour ($201 for out-of-state students). These schools have an articulation agreement making courses such as English 101 equivalent in the eyes of admissions and registrar officials. However, the cost difference is over $3,000.
Why spend $3,000 on a general education class when you can take the same course for less than $500? Using these agreements, this book show families how to save big on tuition expenses, in some cases over $90,000 in two years. Best of all, anyone can make use of these agreements, regardless of income or merit!
Some articulations agreements go further than simply establishing credit reciprocity and actually guarantee admission to partnering schools contingent upon certain criteria, such as maintaining a minimum Grade Point Average (GPA). These opportunities exist for many of the top schools in the country including Cornell University, the University of Virginia, and New York University.
SideDoor Strategies is committed to the idea of an affordable college education that will not leave students or their parents awash in debt. For each four-year school profiled, The Official Guide to College Transfer Agreements highlights the savings which can be achieved by first attending a partnering two-year school, the average debt of its students, and the details of the agreement and application process. To help students understand and develop their college plan, the Guide includes comprehensive information on articulation agreements, college debt and financing options, and the potential impact of current and pending legislation on students planning to attend college.
The Guide also discusses how by spending their first two years at a community college, students can improve their academic record, explore their academic interests and develop career goals, enhance their resumes through on- and off-campus activities, take leadership roles in organizations, and obtain relevant job and internship experience-all which can enable them to succeed at their dream four-year school.
The Official Guide to College Transfer Agreements includes a personal angle-human interest stories to which the reader can relate. Meet eight Transfer Ambassador students that have used or are currently using articulation agreements to their economic and educational advantage. These students come from a range of ethnic and financial backgrounds, and their inspiring stories illustrate how a degree from a top-tier four-year college can be achieved through the use of articulation agreements, and how to make the most out of the entire college experience.
The hardcopy Official Guide to College Transfer Agreements is available for purchase at CollegeTransferAgreements.com for $29 plus shipping, and in electronic, searchable format with hotlinks for $20.
