Frequently asked questions

Yes. Transfer your associate degree from an institutionally accredited community college to save $144 per three-credit course. We have relationships with community colleges across the country that make transferring credit to University of Phoenix easier for you. 

If you have received you associate degree from an institution where we have a 3+1 relationship in place, our 3+1 Transfer Pathway lets you transfer up to 87 credits, the equivalent of three years, toward your bachelor’s degree.

The transfer of credits is at the discretion of the receiving institution. University of Phoenix can perform a pre-evaluation using your unofficial transcripts to give you an idea of how your transfer credits may apply to your selected program. Officially, you need to complete the admissions form, provide information about all schools attended, and sign the transfer request form. When all forms and transcripts are received, you’ll know for sure what transfer credits will apply.

Earned community college credits may be transferable to your next level of learning. Speak with your enrollment representative about specific program requirements. Or use our transfer guides to find out how a specific program from one of our college articulation partners will transfer into a specific University of Phoenix degree program.
