Transfer Pathway Guides

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.

See UR transfer credit policies. AP, IB, CLEP, & Transfer courses: Credits showing as accepted by MCC may not be transferable. See AP Policies and IB Policies. Contact UR with questions. Courses will transfer only if the student receives a grade of C or better. Higher grades for certain courses may be required (ex. ENG 200 and Chemistry courses). * Grade of B or higher required + Click on hyperlink to see course options. To see how MCC courses will transfer, see: UR Transfer Credit Equivalency Chart for MCC Courses. Visit UR Transfer web pages for enrollment information and to schedule meetings with transfer admissions staff. For those enrolled in the 2+2 Pathway as indicated by your MCC major, fill out the MCC 2+2 - Intent to Enroll Form the semester before you intend to transfer. All others will need to apply via the Common Application. GPA of 3.0 or higher is advised for acceptance to UR. GPA of 2.0 is required for MCC graduation. Optical Systems Technology AAS (OT01) will be the degree the student is audited against and awarded from MCC. See the Optics Department Chair for course substitutions.
