How does the Guaranteed
Transfer Program work?
First, students must formally sign up for the
program with the BCC Transfer Director before
they have completed 30 credits at BCC. Next,
with the help of BCC staff, students identify
an intended major and follow a structured
academic plan to complete general education
courses and lower division courses for that
major. The academic plan will lead the
student to the completion of an associates
degree and enable the student to transfer all
(or nearly all) their credits to the four-year
institution. Students are guaranteed admission
to the four-year institution at junior-level
status if they earn a pre-determined grade
point average.
What are the criteria for
successful transfer through the
Guaranteed Transfer Program?
Students must complete the recommended
transfer program for their intended major
at the four-year institution.
Students must take all courses at BCC.
Students must complete the associates
degree at BCC.
Students must earn the grade point
average (GPA) required by the partner
institution, and any other admissions
requirements of that institution.
Students must submit all required
admissions application material to the
BCC Transfer Director in advance of the
admissions application deadline of the
partner institution.
How to Apply for the
Guaranteed Transfer Program
Guaranteed Transfer Programs are for students
who have chosen a specific major at one of
BCC’s partner institutions. The specific “Intent
to Transfer” forms list the designated majors for
each participating school. You must complete
an “Intent to Transfer” form for the school of
your choice and return it to:
Dr. Robert Ariosto
Director, BCC Transfer Center
Laurel Hall Student Services Center
Mt. Laurel Campus
These forms must be completed during the
time period stated for the specific college/
university to which you are applying. Forms are
available in the Student Services Center in
Pemberton or the Student Services Counter
in Laurel Hall, Mt. Laurel.
Your application will be evaluated as to
your status for admission to one of these
programs. If eligible, you'll be scheduled for
an individual appointment to discuss future
course requirements and transferability.
