Community College of Philadelphia has several transfer agreements with Millersville University of Pennsylvania: core-to-core and two different program-to-program transfer agreements. To benefit from these agreements, students must earn an appropriate associate degree before transfer.

Statewide Transfer Agreement

As one of Pennsylvania’s public universities within the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education (PASSHE), Millersville University is a member of the Pennsylvania Statewide Transfer System, dedicated to accepting the transfer of Associate of Arts (A.A.) and Associate of Science (A.S.) degrees into parallel baccalaureate programs with full junior standing, recognizing all the competencies attained within the associate degree programs. The associate degree may integrate courses to satisfy part of a 30-credit framework.

To benefit from this program-to-program agreement, students must earn an appropriate associate degree before transfer.

Students are encouraged to visit www.pacollegetransfer.net to explore transfer opportunities with institutions that participate in the Statewide Transfer System and to view Community College of Philadelphia courses that are part of the 30 credit framework mentioned above. Courses from the 30 credit framework are recommended to be integrated into a student's degree program at Community College of Philadelphia.

Program-to-Program

These are agreements in which an entire curriculum or program of study is accepted, so graduates of these specific associate degree programs transfer with advanced standing to a matching specific bachelor's degree program at Millersville University.

In addition to the Statewide Transfer Agreement, Community College of Philadelphia developed a Sound Recording and Music Technology Program-to-Program Agreement for Community College of Philadelphia students who earn the Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) in Sound Recording and Music Technology.

For questions about this program-to-program agreement, students should email Paul J. Geissinger, Associate Professor, Music Department Head and Spring Garden Records Director at pgeissinger@ccp.edu. 

Core-to-Core

The Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education (PASSHE) institutions recognize that students who transfer from Community College of Philadelphia with an Associate of Science or an Associate of Arts degree:

Shall have satisfied the general education requirements at the receiving university. Exceptions may be made for the following, provided that these exceptions do not extend the student’s time to the degree: (a) One signature general education course (up to 3 credits), if applicable; (b) Any prescribed general education course required for the major, if not satisfactorily completed; (c) General education overlays satisfied in advanced courses in the major. (PASSHE Transfer policy.)

Therefore, Millersville University agrees to accept the General Education embedded in Community College of Philadelphia’s A.A. or A.S. degrees as meeting all the requirements of its general education with the exception of an Advanced Writing requirement, which is a distinctive General Education requirement at Millersville University. 

This core-to-core agreement applies to all A.A. and A.S. degrees and does not alter the requirements of the student's major field of study.
