    Community College Transfer Pathways

    Ohio Consortium for Transfer Pathways to the Liberal Arts

    Ursuline College is a member of the Ohio Consortium for Transfer Pathways to the Liberal Arts, a group of 25 two-year and four-year colleges working together to provide clear, consistent transfer pathways for community college students transferring to Ursuline and other private colleges in Ohio. These transfer pathways align with the Ohio Guaranteed Transfer Pathways (OGTPs), ensuring that associate degrees from Ohio’s community colleges provide a clear path to your bachelor's degree.

    If you are looking to transfer to Ursuline from one of the community colleges within the Ohio Consortium, we offer approved transfer pathways in biology, English, and psychology, designed to keep you on track to graduate with your bachelor’s degree! Read the Transfer Pledge.

    Benefits of the Consortium Transfer Pathways:

    • Transfer pathways give you clarity in the courses you take from many different community colleges and assurance that your courses will transfer smoothly toward your bachelor’s degree at Ursuline College.
    • You’ll transfer with introductory major and most general education courses complete.
    • With the associate degree and transfer pathway, students can transfer to Ursuline as a college junior, with maximum credit counting toward the major and bachelor’s degree. Check with a transfer advisor to make sure you meet GPA and other admission requirements.
    • Once you’ve enrolled at Ursuline, you can complete your bachelor’s degree in as little as two years, enrolled as a full-time student.
    • Transfer advisors at Ursuline and community colleges are working together for your success! They will answer questions and guide you every step of the way.
