Minnesota Transfer Curriculum

At SCTCC, we believe in choice. We have created an established agreement with seven Minnesota State universities to ensure our graduates can easily continue their education at the institution of their choice.

Students can choose to attend any of the following colleges:

• Bemidji State University
• Metropolitan State University
• Minnesota State University, Mankato
• Minnesota State University, Moorhead
• St. Cloud State University
• Southwest Minnesota State University
• Winona State University

With so many options, students are certain to find the program and school that fits their academic needs and goals.

The Minnesota Transfer Curriculum is only 40 credits and makes up the core of an Associate’s degree. Both will transfer to a Minnesota State university, but you'll save some more money by getting more credits done with an Associate’s degree.

The Minnesota Transfer Curriculum is only 40 credits and makes up the core of an Associate of Arts degree. An associate’s degree is 60 credits, including the 40 credits of the Minnesota Transfer Curriculum with an additional 18 credits of electives and 2 credits of wellness.

Typically, the first half of the Associates of Arts degree is the first half of a bachelor’s degree and can transfer virtually anywhere you decide to go. Both the associate or transfer program can seamlessly transfer to a Minnesota State university. However, if you’re looking to save money, getting your associate’s degree with SCTCC may be the best choice for you.
