Transfer Admissions

A transfer student is a student pursuing a degree at Halifax Community College who has earned credits at another institution and wishes to apply these credits toward a Halifax Community College certificate, diploma, or degree. In addition to submitting all other application materials, a student desiring to receive transfer credit must have an official transcript sent to Halifax Community College by the institution that originally granted the credits (see Transfer Credit in Academic Information section).

 

Note: Transfer and reentry students must provide official transcripts from all institutions attended if they desire transfer credit. HCC’s registrar will evaluate the official transcript before any placement testing waiver is granted.
