Transfer of credit may be accepted from students who provide official transcripts with a current post date from institutions fully accredited by an approved national or regional accrediting agency, if these credits fit the program of studies selected at UACCB and the student received a grade of “C” or higher. The college will not accept developmental courses for transfer except when the course serves as a prerequisite or for placement. The College reserves the right to deny credit for certain classes that are more than five years old. Official transcripts should be submitted to the Admissions Office. Final approval of transfer credits rests with the Vice Chancellor for Academics. Transfer credit will be indicated on the student’s UACCB transcript; transfer credit is not calculated as a part of the student’s cumulative GPA. Documents received from other institutions are the property of UACCB and cannot be re-issued or copied. Transfer students from other institutions must meet the general admission requirements of UACCB. Transfer students seeking a UACCB degree must adhere to the graduation requirements.
- Associate of Applied Science Degree – A student must complete a minimum of 24 credit hours toward the degree at UACCB.
- Associate of Arts Degree – A student must complete a minimum of 24 credit hours toward the degree at UACCB.
- Associate of Science Degree - A student must complete a minimum of 24 Credit hours toward the degree at UACCB.

- Certificate of Proficiency – A student must complete a minimum of 6 credit hours toward the degree at UACCB. These credits must be earned as a regular student rather than by test-out or other means of advanced placement.
The student may submit course descriptions and/or syllabi of transfer courses if there is any question concerning the acceptance of credits. The college reserves the right to revise any credit awards upon receipt of additional information.
Arkansas Course Transfer System (ACTS)
The Arkansas Course Transfer System contains information about the transferability of courses within Arkansas public colleges and universities. Students are guaranteed the transfer of applicable credits and the equitable treatment in the application of credits for the admissions and degree requirements. Course transferability is not guaranteed for courses listed in ACTS as “No Comparable Course.” Additionally, courses with a “D” frequently do not transfer and institutional policies may vary. ACTS may be accessed by going to the ADHE website Course Transfer page.
