Transfer-In Information

The evaluation of your transfer credits is a two step process:

Step 1: Submit your official transcripts to Anoka Technical College Records and Registration Office.

Step 2: Anoka Technical College will determine how many credits will transfer, and which courses will apply towards your education plan. You will receive written confirmation of this determination. This evaluation will also be available through your Degree Audit Report (DARS) after you begin your program of study.

In general, courses will be accepted if:

• the course is part of the Minnesota Transfer Curriculum
• the course content is comparable to the Anoka Technical College course

Caution: You cannot count credit twice for essentially the same course (i.e., do not take English Composition I at one campus and repeat that equivalent course at another campus). To avoid the time and money involved in needlessly repeating a course, it is important to have all your transcripts submitted for evaluation prior to starting your program.

Appeals: After you receive your credit evaluation, you may wish to review Anoka Technical College credit transfer policy. Transfer of credits is not an exact science and you may disagree with your credit evaluation. You have the right to appeal any courses you believe should have been accepted for transfer. Academic advising may help you determine whether you should submit a petition to appeal the credit evaluation. You may be required to submit additional documentation to support an appeal to have the course content re-evaluated.

For more information regarding transferring courses refer to the Minnesota Course Applicability System (MnCAS) which provides information about how courses transfer from one institution to another.
