Transfer Credit
- First-year applicants receive credit for college courses completed during high school as well as AP and IB exam credits. Your transferable credits will be evaluated and your class standing will be determined at that point.
- For early college high school students enrolled through a North Carolina community college, we follow the transfer credit policies defined in the Comprehensive Articulation Agreement between the UNC System and the North Carolina Community College System.
- High school students completing college coursework through any other institution can use the Transfer Credit Advisor tool to identify the credits that will be awarded for successfully completed college coursework.
What to submit with your application:
- Early college high school graduates who have not completed college courses after graduation from high school are considered a first-year applicant for reporting and application purposes.
- When you apply to Charlotte, please submit your college transcript along with your other application materials.
What We Review/Consider:
- We will consider both your high school academic coursework, essay and optional test scores as well as your college courses and grades.
