Transfer for Military & Veterans

Are you planning to transfer to one of Kentucky's eight public four-year colleges or universities after completing a degree at a KCTCS college?  Kentucky has several statewide agreements and policies to help you transfer academic credit to a four-year institution as easily as possible.  If you have additional questions or need one-on-one assistance, be sure to contact transfer staff at your local college.

Below you will find contact information for staff at your transfer institution who can assist you once you have applied for admission.  Note that VA certifying officials work mainly with education benefits such as the GI Bill® but can refer you to other departments and resources.
