Transfer Students
Saint Joseph College has a long tradition of working closely with transfer and adult learners to assist them in making the best use of their previous experience in order to achieve their long-term academic goals. All students are assigned an advisor who meets with them regularly to develop an individual plan of study. Whether part-time or full-time, each student is given the tools to select a major which suits her interests, abilities and values and which provide the foundation for the fulfillment of her personal and professional goals.
The Advisement Process
Most students who transfer into Saint Joseph College with 45 credits or more, all matriculated Weekend Program Adult Learners and all second-degree candidates are assigned a faculty advisor in their major departments. Students who arrive with less than 45 credits, or are nursing majors (first bachelor's) or who have not yet chosen a major are assigned to work with a professional advisor in the Academic Advisement Center until they are prepared to move on to their major departments.
Where to Begin
Saint Joseph College recognizes academic credit that has been awarded to students at other regionally and nationally accredited higher education institutions, insofar as courses are of the general nature of courses offered at the College. For information on how course work will transfer to Saint Joseph College from the Connecticut State Community College System, please refer to our transfer credit equivalency guide.
