Additional Resources

Here are some additional online resources about the transfer process:

University of Florida
List of majors and requirements for transfer admission & deadlines.
Ted Talk - From Community College to Yale
Gabriel Conte Cortez Martins, an MDC student who transferred to Yale. This student was in the Honors College. But there is no reason that, with excellent grades, any MDC student cannot also be competitive for top schools.
Katherine Ibsen (YouTuber) - Academia Lifestyle
YouTube channel geared towards community college transfers, so I encourage you to browse the videos available there.
How to Transfer From Community College to a 4 Year University
o This video is particularly helpful. While it’s principally geared to California colleges, there is a lot of information that applies generally. Note how much research she did on which courses she’d have to take in order to qualify as a transfer to UC Berkeley. While the requirements differ from college to college, it shows how important it is to do this research in advance of applying to transfer.
Shemmassian Academic Consulting
A college counseling website with an excellent section about transferring from a community college to the Ivy League.
From the service to school - Jill Radsken
A piece about veterans who transferred from a community college to Harvard.
