Transfer Pathways

Crafted with our partner institutions, Transfer Pathways (articulation agreements and Ohio Guaranteed Transfer Pathways) define a relationship that enables students to more easily transfer to the University of Cincinnati. UC has agreements with several colleges across the country (below). Transfer opportunities are not limited to the schools/programs listed here. If your school/program is not on the list, connect with a memberof the Transfer Center to review your coursework and discuss transfer opportunities.

Each Articulation Agreement* includes both formal agreement language (duration, signatures, etc.) and a student-centered, faculty-driven Transfer Degree Map or Equivalency Guide that includes a semester-by-semester plan! Explore by institution below to see if your college/university and major has a transfer pathway available.

*Note: Some Breadth of Knowledge (BoK) designations have changed effective June 2025 (removal of DEI). We are in the process of amending existing agreements. Please refer to active major curriculum in the interim.

Transfer Degree Maps

Transfer Degree Maps are clear pathways based on articulation agreements between select associate degrees at community colleges and compatible bachelor's degrees at UC. 

Although the idea behind a Transfer Degree Map is that you complete your associate degree at your community college and continue to finish your baccalaureate degree at UC, each guide offers a semester-by-semester course comparison, so you can decide the best time to transfer.

We realize, transferring to a new college is a big step. That is why we are here to help. Please contact the Transfer Center with any questions you may have and we will help you on your way.

Accessible Versions

We are currently working on converting all Transfer Degree Maps to screen reader-friendly versions. In the meantime, if you require assistance, please email transfer@uc.edu.
