By transferring the hours you earn toward your UMKC bachelor's degree back to your community college, your coursework could help you earn degrees from both schools. And the best part, UMKC and your community college cover the cost of sharing transcripts for you!

The benefits of reverse transfer

• Maximize your credits and earn two degrees at the same time
• Make yourself more employable! Qualify for more job opportunities or possible career advancement with an earned associate's degree
• Possibly meet UMKC general education requirements

Reverse transfer eligibility

Students may opt in to reverse transfer if they have at least 15 transferable credit hours from a participating community college and have not yet earned an associate's degree or bachelor's degree.

Participating Community Colleges:

• All Missouri two-year institutions
• Johnson County Community College

Help with reverse transfer

UMKC works with our community college partners to exchange transcripts automatically each semester at no cost to the student.
