Transfer Associate Degree

If your aim is to transfer to a four-year school, earning a Louisiana Transfer Associate degree is a great place to start. This degree offered at Louisiana community colleges includes the foundation courses needed for a four-year program, and pursuing this degree can help students choose a major best suited to their interests. Upon earning this degree, students will have completed the first 60 hours of college credit towards a four-year degree. Southeastern will recognize the following Associates degrees: Associate of Science, Associate of Arts, or Associate of General Studies. Southeastern will not recognize an Associate of Applied Science.

How Credits Transfer

The Office of Admissions will evaluate your official transcripts upon submission of online application to determine how your courses transfer. Generally, Southeastern accepts most college level courses from regionally accredited colleges and universities. Southeastern does not accept technical or vocational courses nor courses taken for varsity sports. Most transferable courses will be assigned either direct equivalents or electives, and all college level coursework (excluding developmental courses) will be used to calculate your cumulative GPA. Southeastern does not have a repeat-delete policy and will review all coursework taken at previous institutions.

As your transcripts are evaluated, courses that are transferable will be posted to your Transfer Credit Report which is accessed through your LEONET student account. If you have questions concerning your transfer credit evaluation, you may contact the Transfer Admission Counselor. If you have questions regarding how courses apply to your curriculum, you should contact an Academic Advisor in the department of your major.

Connect to Success

Southeastern has partnered with Northshore Technical Community College to establish the Connect to Success Program. This program is designed to expand access and preparation of NTCC students who have the opportunity to eventually transfer to a baccalaureate program at Southeastern. Students can take developmental and general education courses on Southeastern's campus in order to earn the credits necessary to be formally admitted to a four-year institution. Below is the course and how these classes are transferrable to Southeastern.

Transfer Course Guide

Southeastern uses the Louisiana Board of Regents Statewide Transfer Guide as a basis for determining general education course equivalencies. This transfer guide includes most general education courses taught at public colleges and universities in Louisiana. Below are guides that show courses from 2-year and 4-year schools and how these courses transfer to Southeastern.
