Welcome to RCC's on-line Transfer Center!

If you are planning to transfer to a four-year college or university, you've come to the right place! This site is designed to provide you with important information that you will need to know before transferring.

In addition to admissions and financial aid information, you will find transfer guides for many academic majors at the Oregon public universities. The transfer guides will assist you in determining which lower-division courses you can take at RCC to meet the academic major requirements. By using these guides in your transfer planning, you can save yourself time and money. With rising costs of tuition at the four-year schools, it's a good idea to complete as many of your general education and major requirements before you transfer.

The Associate of Arts Transfer degree (AAOT) and Associate of Science Oregon Transfer degree in Business (ASOT) are two-year degrees offered by all the Oregon community colleges. The AAOT and ASOT transfers to all the Oregon public universities and many of the Oregon private colleges and universities. Completion of the AAOT/ASOT means you have completed all lower-division general education requirements required for a bachelor's degree. For many academic majors, that means you are halfway to your bachelor's degree!

Financial aid and scholarships play an important part in funding your education. You can access this information from all the Oregon university web sites. Many schools offer scholarships exclusively for transfer students. Again, planning ahead is important - don't miss the filing deadlines for scholarships!

Distance Education programs are becoming increasingly popular for students who cannot fit classroom time into their busy schedules. Be sure to explore the Distance Education link for all the Oregon universities offering on-line degree programs. Representatives from these programs visit the RCC campuses at least once a term.

If you are interested in becoming an Oregon teacher, we have provided an on-line booklet that explains everything you need to know (and more) about the process of becoming a teacher.

Be sure to stop by and visit our Transfer Centers. At the Riverside campus, the Center is located upstairs of G building, right next to the Counseling department. At the Redwood campus, our Center is located in Student Services, Wiseman building. The Transfer Centers are well stocked with resource materials including all Oregon universities school catalogs, brochures, admission and financial aid applications, transfer guides, and more. In addition to the resource materials, computers are available for students to explore the school web sites.

Transfer events are held throughout the year on both RCC campuses. In February our annual College Fair offers students the opportunity to meet with representatives from several Oregon public and private universities. Be sure to check out the “What’s New” page to see current updates on transfer events.

Stop by and see what's happening in the world of transfer students. At Rogue, we'll get you connected!
