Polytechnic

Transfer to Polytechnic@UofM

Your credits already count. Finish what you started at Memphis.

If you've earned an associate degree at a Tennessee community college or a diploma or certificate at a Tennessee College of Applied Technology, or an associate degree at Moore Tech, you may already be up to halfway to a bachelor's degree with The Polytechnic@UofM.

Tell us where you studied, and an advisor will show you exactly how your credits apply.

How your credit counts

Community college and Moore Tech associate degree graduates

You can transfer up to 60 credits, about half of a bachelor's degree. Your general education classes count toward our general education requirements.

Technical college graduates

You can transfer up to 30 credits for the hours you spent in your diploma or certificate program.

Your classes count

Some of your classes count as specific courses in your new degree. The rest count as electives, so the hands-on training you've already done isn't wasted.

You finish with us

You finish the rest with us, following a semester-by-semester plan built for your program.

Credit awarded depends on your program and your transcript. A grade of C or better is required.
