Transfer Credit and Articulation Agreements

Transfer Credit and Articulation Agreements

A student may transfer to UA Cossatot and may be admitted at the first of each semester, if transfer is not due to disciplinary or academic reasons. If transfer is due to disciplinary or academic reasons, the student must petition the Academic Dean for admission before being admitted and enrolled. All transcripts must be received and evaluated prior to admission. Transfer credits will be placed on a UA Cossatot transcript after 12 semester credit hours have been completed at UA Cossatot, provided the student is seeking a degree and has requested a transcript evaluation.

The most popular, obvious, publicized, and well-considered reason to obtain an Associate’s degree is to complete a program and then successfully transfer courses and credits to a university. In fact, the Roger Phillips Transfer Act of the 2009 Arkansas General Assembly provides for guarantee transfer of an associates degree from any Arkansas two-year institution to any public four-year university. Plus, other individual courses from UA Cossatot may transfer.

The Arkansas Course Transfer System can tell you exactly which UA Cossatot courses will transfer to other Arkansas schools. The Arkansas Course Transfer System (ACTS) contains information about the transferability of courses within Arkansas public colleges and universities. Students are guaranteed the transfer of applicable credits and equitable treatment in the application of credits for the admissions and degree requirements. The Arkansas Course Transfer System (ACTS) is postsecondary education resource service that provides comparable course information to facilitate student transfer within Arkansas public colleges and universities. The ACTS database contains faculty-generated comparable course information for a number of courses offered at public institutions in Arkansas. Comparable courses within ACTS are guaranteed to transfer for full credit to any Arkansas public institution.

The Arkansas Transfer Achievement Scholarship reduces tuition rates for students who graduate with associate’s degrees from any of the two-year colleges in the University of Arkansas System and then transfer to the University of Arkansas - Fayetteville campus. The scholarship will enable any student who earns an associate’s degree at UA Cossatot to transfer to the University of Arkansas to work toward a bachelor’s degree, while continuing to pay the same basic credit hour tuition they paid at UA-Cossatot.

The Arkansas Transfer Achievement Scholarship applies to base tuition at the U of A, and recipients will still be required to pay all applicable fees as well as any differential tuition above the base rate charged by programs. 

Students remain eligible to renew an Arkansas Transfer Achievement Scholarship until earning a bachelor’s degree or completing 10 regular semesters, whichever comes first. To renew an Arkansas Transfer Achievement Scholarship a student must remain in good academic standing and stay enrolled at the U of A.
