Students who begin courses at one of the 15 Colorado Community Colleges prior to Fall Semester 2003 will have the option of completing the Community College Transfer Core that has existed since 1989 or completing the new Guaranteed Transfer Courses. Students who opt to complete the Community College Transfer Core must have all core course work completed before the end of Summer Semester 2005. Upon completion of the Transfer Core all core classes will be guaranteed to transfer. If the Transfer Core is not completed, courses will be evaluated on a course‑by‑course basis.

Completion of both the Transfer Core and an AA or AS degree with a grade of “C” or better in each of the courses in the Transfer may qualify the student to transfer under the Statewide Transfer Policy (60+60), but it does not guarantee it.

Students beginning classes in the Fall of 2003 or after must follow the guidelines established for the new Guarantee Transfer Courses.
