COMMUNITY COLLEGE TRANSFER AGREEMENTS

While you may transfer to Caz from any college, we have established Transfer Agreements with several community colleges to ease the transition from a 2-year college to a 4-year college.

The agreements assure admission to Cazenovia College at junior status by following the directed sequence of coursework leading to an associate degree from a partnering community college. A full-time student can then complete the specific Cazenovia College degree in two years as long as the required coursework is followed with minimum passing grades.

Take a look at our Transfer Agreements to see if one fits your academic goals.
