Reverse Transfer
Students who transfer to a Kansas public university from a Kansas public community
college or technical college (or vice versa) are eligible for
Reverse Transfer
, which allows for the attainment of any associate degree for which one is eligible
along the way to additional certificates and degrees. Within a student's first semester,
those who transfer coursework from a public university, community college or technical
college will be notified if they are eligible to be considered for reverse transfer
degree status, and which courses are needed to finish the related degree. Students
who then complete the coursework for a given associate degree will be eligible to
receive that degree, administered automatically by correspondence between the new
institution and the university, community college or technical college the student
last attended.
