Standardized test scores

There is no time limit for using standardized test scores when considering transfer applicants. Courses taken at non-baccalaureate degree-granting schools are not transferable if they are upper-level or upper-division at USCA.

Courses taken while on academic suspension

There are no limitations on transferring courses taken at other schools by a suspended student (other than the criteria listed under evaluation of transfer credits) unless suspended from the University of South Carolina.

Institutional maximums of transferable credit

The senior year of work (30 semester hours) must be completed in residence at USCA, and at least 12 hours of the student’s major courses must be earned at USCA. At least 25 percent of semester credit hours applicable toward the degree must be earned at USCA. Most baccalaureate degrees require one hundred twenty semester credit hours with a minimum system grade point average of 2.0.

Transfer scholarship opportunities

USCA has established scholarships for students who have demonstrated superior academic performance at two-year colleges in South Carolina.
