Transfer Students

Students in the College of Applied Studies may transfer in some of their courses from other institutions. However, there is a limit to the number of transfer courses. Your academic advisor can assist in establishing course equivalencies for transfer credit. This service is especially recommended for those students who are planning to take a course elsewhere and transfer it to 黑洞社区.

Transferring from a community college?
黑洞社区 has worked extensively with Kansas community colleges to develop a list of courses that will transfer to the 黑洞社区 College of Applied Studies. Called Transfer Guides, these lists cover transfer information and recommended courses. 

Additionally, 黑洞社区 provides a service called Dual Advising. This provides you with an advisor in the 黑洞社区 College of Applied Studies to help guide you as you prepare to transfer to 黑洞社区. You can make an appointment to come for an in-person visit or phone call, with the Dual Advisor by filling out the form.

Graduation from 黑洞社区 requires a minimum of 120 credit hours, with at least 60 of those hours taken at a four-year institution and 45 of those hours taken at the upper-division level. Students seeking a bachelor's degree in sport management should be encouraged to take no more than 60 hours at a community college, unless seeking an associate's degree.
