In recent years, over 200,000 students have enrolled in college credit courses at these institutions throughout Ohio. Two-year colleges consist of three types: technical, state community, and community. Technical colleges provide hands-on education in a specific field. Many technical college graduates transfer to baccalaureate programs. Both state community and community colleges offer technical programs and university parallel programs providing students with a variety of options. Students who choose to begin their college careers at a two-year college cite quality of education and reasonable cost as the main benefits. Completing the first two years of a bachelor s degree at a twoyear college can save the student several thousand dollars. A variety of technical, career-oriented degrees offered by two-year colleges can lead to employment immediately after the student completes his/her associate degree. This guide provides an up-to-date directory of programs and services offered by Ohio s system of technical and community colleges. We hope you find it helpful!

The purpose of the State Policy is to avoid duplication of course requirements and to enhance student mobility throughout Ohio s higher education system. Since independent colleges and universities in Ohio may or may not be participating in the transfer policy, students interested in transferring to an independent institution are encouraged to check with the college or university of their choice regarding transfer agreements. The Ohio Board of Regents Transfer and Articulation policy established the Transfer Module, which is a specific subset or the entire set of a college or university s general education requirements. The Transfer Module contains semester hours of specified course credits in English composition, mathematics, fine arts, humanities, social science, behavioral science, natural science, physical science, and interdisciplinary course work. A transfer module completed at one college or university will automatically meet the requirements of the transfer module at the receiving institution, once the student is accepted. Students may be required, however, to meet additional general education requirements that are not included in the Transfer Module. Admission Requirement: High school graduation or GED.
