Transfer Programs

Completing general education requirements is the focus of freshman and sophomore years at most institutions. These years are also the perfect opportunity to explore many different subjects before deciding on a major.

Carl Sandburg College provides the same quality educational courses you'd take as a freshman or sophomore anywhere else, but at a much lower cost. Individual learning is our No. 1 priority, which is why we offer student-centered classes and programs that provide the academic skills needed for successful transfer to other institutions.

You'll work with an assigned academic advisor to determine the degree path and to establish courses needed for your transfer. Refer to the academic advising pages for more information.
