Reverse Transfer

Reverse Transfer allows students who have completed credits toward an associate degree to receive an MCC degree even if they have transferred to a four-year college or university.

Students who have completed a minimum of 22.5-quarter hours at MCC and then transfer to a four-year college or university can transfer credit back to MCC to earn an MCC associate degree. 

How does the Reverse Transfer Program work?

Step 1: Students need to complete the Reverse Transfer form below or through their University of Nebraska dashboard link.
Step 2: Students will need to submit their official transcript from their college or university.

  • By mail:
    MCC Registrar's Office
    PO Box 3777
    Omaha, NE 68103
     
  • Hand deliver to the Registrar's Office (Fort Omaha Campus, building 5). The transcript must be in a sealed college envelope.
  • Electronically ONLY through a third party electronic transcript provider (Parchment, Scrip-Safe, National Student Clearinghouse, etc.) to the e-mail: transcripts@mccneb.edu.

In order to earn an MCC associate degree through Reverse Transfer, students must have attended a regionally accredited institution and have subsequently earned a 2.0 GPA or higher.  MCC will only accept grades of “C” or higher.  Students who qualify for Reverse Transfer will need to submit official transcripts to MCC Registrar's Office.

  • An associate degree can open the door to more job opportunities and higher pay.
  • Students can earn an associate degree while pursuing their bachelor’s degree.
  • Transfer students with an associate degree are much more likely to persist to a bachelor’s degree.

Students must have earned a minimum of 22.5 or more quarter credits at MCC to be eligible for the reverse transfer degree.

Applying for a reverse transfer degree is a simple and seamless process. Students need to complete the Reverse Transfer form on this page or through their University Dashboard link. Then, students will need to submit their transcript to MCC for evaluation.

Earning an Associate’s degree will not impact your eligibility for state or federal financial aid or military education benefits while you're pursuing a bachelor's degree. If you are receiving private scholarship money, please check with the awarding organization to ensure that earning an associate’s degree will not render you ineligible for the scholarship.
