Transfer within Curriculums McDowell Technical Community College will make all reasonable efforts to assist students who transfer from one curriculum to another within the College. Credits earned in one curriculum will transfer to another when appropriate. A student’s cumulative grade point average will be computed only from the credits transferred to the new curriculum. The appropriate Dean is the primary authority in determining transfer of credits from other schools and within curriculums. When there is doubt about the transfer of a credit, the appropriate Dean will consult the appropriate faculty members. If a student wishes to appeal the decision, the transcript will be referred to the Chief Academic Officer, whose decision will be final.
