locally autonomous technical and community colleges. In 2006, over 

160.000 students enrolled in college credit courses at these institutions 

throughout Ohio. 

Two-year colleges consist of three types: technical, state community, 

and community. Technical colleges provide hands-on education in a 

specific field. Many technical college graduates transfer to baccalaureate 

programs. Both state community and community colleges offer technical 

programs and university parallel programs providing students with a 

variety of options. 

Students who choose to begin their college careers at a two-year college 

cite quality of education and reasonable cost as the main benefits. 

Completing the first two years of a bachelor’s degree at a two-year 

college can save the student several thousand dollars. A variety of 

technical, career-oriented degrees offered by two-year colleges can 

lead to employment immediately after the student completes his/her 

associate degree. 

This guide provides an up-to-date directory of programs and services 

offered by Ohio’s system of technical and community colleges. We hope 

you find it helpful!

State of Ohio Transfer 

The Ohio Board of Regents, following the directive of the Ohio General Assembly, has developed a statewide policy to facilitate 

movement of students and transfer credits from one Ohio public college or university to another. The purpose of the State Policy 

is to avoid duplication of course requirements and to enhance student mobility throughout Ohio’s higher education system. Since 

independent colleges and universities in Ohio may or may not be participating in the transfer policy, students interested in 

transferring to an independent institution are encouraged to check with the college or university of their choice regarding 

transfer agreements. 

The Ohio Board of Regents’ Transfer and Articulation policy established the Transfer Module, which is a specific subset or the 

entire set of a college or university’s general education requirements. The Transfer Module contains 54-60 quarter hours or 36- 

40 semester hours of specified course credits in English composition, mathematics, fine arts, humanities, social science, 

behavioral science, natural science, physical science, and interdisciplinary course work. A transfer module completed at one 

college or university will automatically meet the requirements of the transfer module at the receiving institution, once the student 

is accepted. Students may be required, however, to meet additional general education requirements that are not included in the 

Transfer Module.
