Transfer Credit Evaluations
An official transcript must be mailed directly to CCA at Community College of Aurora, Attn: Credentials Evaluator, 16000 E. CentreTech Pkwy, Aurora, CO 80011 from the college where credit was initially earned or if your prior college offers a secure electronic transcript delivery system, have the transcript emailed to Records@CCAurora.edu. Transfer credit will be evaluated course by course based upon the student’s declared degree or certificate. Generally, grades of "C" or better will be accepted in transfer.
Depending on program of study at CCA, and courses taken, some classes are not eligible for transfer after 5 years. Please consult a Pathway Advisor for details.
To initiate the transfer process, students should have official paper or electronic transcripts sent directly to the Community College of Aurora from previous accredited colleges and universities for official evaluation. CCA's credentials evaluator will transfer in appropriate courses after students have done all of the following:
- Complete an Admissions Application
- Request that all colleges previously attended send official transcripts directly to CCA
- Please visit www.CCAurora.edu/transfer-in for transfer details.
- If you are a student who holds an international transcript and would like to have it evaluated for possible transfer of credit, you must first send the official transcript to a NACES-approved agency for evaluation, and translation, if necessary. Please visit https://www.ccaurora.edu/file/download/25991 for further instructions.
Confirmation letters will be mailed informing student that their transcript evaluation is complete and transfer credits are posted to their account. Students may review their degree plan including transfer credits through Degree Check. Students can access Degree Check by going to
www.ccaurora.edu, logging into their MyCCA account, and then clicking on the Student Tab. It is the responsibility of the student to provide all required documents. Credit is typically evaluated and posted to the student record within 30 days of receipt at CCA. Documents become the property of the college and will not be released to the student or transferred to other institutions.
