Transfer Programs

Partnerships with all three Arizona four-year universities allow for a seamless transfer to ASU, NAU or UA. Cochise also has agreements with a number of other universities so students can guarantee many transfer credits. Each transfer program has specific instructions regarding curriculum and transfer procedures. Visit with an advisor to best plan your study program to meet the requirements of other institutions.

Transfer to Arizona Universities

General information about transferring courses to state universities is available online through the Arizona Course Equivalency Guide website (CEG). Students attending Arizona public community colleges can see how their coursework will transfer to Arizona State University, Northern Arizona University and the University of Arizona.

The AZTransfer website provides information regarding policies and procedures for transferring credits from community colleges to public universities in the state of Arizona. In addition, the Shared Unique Number (SUN) System website helps students identify courses that will directly transfer among Arizona’s community colleges and three public universities. Using the SUN System, students can easily search for and enroll in courses that offer direct equivalency at other Arizona colleges and universities.
