MCC Degree Awarded:
Electrical Engineering Technology - Electronics A.A.S. (ET01)
Please note that some courses required in a Transfer Pathway may not be required for the MCC program. This could have financial aid implications. Students should meet with their advisor or with a transfer representative to discuss an academic plan and recommended sequence of courses.
Transfer Guide
Students interested in
this Competitive Transfer Pathway must complete an MCC program change request
with their Success Coach and meet specific entrance requirements to be
formally accepted.
For those accepted (as indicated by their MCC major): continuous, full-time
enrollment (12 or more credit hours each semester) is required. Enrollment
in this Competitive Transfer Pathway, along with closely following the
guide, significantly increases the likelihood of acceptance by the 4-year
institution. Please note that student contact information will be shared
with the 4-year institution. Students will need to complete a transfer
application, typically done prior to the start of their last semester at
MCC.
If not accepted into the MCC Competitive Transfer Pathway, students
can still follow this advising guide and apply to the transfer university.
All students are encouraged to meet with Career Services staff at MCC and
Transfer Admissions at RIT.
The number of credits accepted by RIT are indicated in parenthesis.
Note the following:
GPA of 2.8 or higher is advised for acceptance to RIT.
Students repeating
courses will have their grade point average recalculated by RIT to include
these courses in their overall GPA. Numerous repeat of courses and/or low
GPA may result in removal of student from the Competitive Transfer Pathway
by MCC or RIT. The final admissions decision will be made by RIT.
A grade of C or better is needed for credit to be awarded by RIT.
AP, IB, CLEP, transfer credit, MCC College Now or other Dual Enrollment
courses: Credits showing as accepted by MCC may not be transferable. See
Transfer
and Test Credit.

questions.

Additional MCC courses that will transfer into these degrees include: MTH
210 Calculus I, MTH 211 Calculus II; and
MCC Courses that fulfill RIT Perspective Courses:
Artistic, Global, Social - See MCC Career Services for details.
Students transferring to RIT will need co-ops and additional coursework
that will extend their time at RIT. The 4th/final co-op block can be waived
if the student receives a full-time job offer in their field of study.
Electronics courses are normally offered only one semester per year, and
have as a prerequisite certain lower numbered ELT courses. Failure to complete
ELT courses in a properly planned sequence may result in a delay of graduation.
Most other courses in this program are available Fall, Spring and Summer
sessions.
Refer to RIT
Course Equivalencies.
The Electrical Engineering Technology A.A.S. (ET01) will be the degree
student is audited against and awarded from MCC.

While every effort is made to ensure accurate information, students are
strongly advised to verify course transferability with the four-year institution
as they will make the final determination of transfer credit. |
