Information Technology – College Transfer Option
The Information Technology – College Transfer option at GTCC is designed for students who wish to transfer to a four-year institution. Students in this track typically transfer to a four-year institution after completion, where transfer of credits earned at GTCC will be applied to programs of study related to Computer Science, Information Systems, and/or Information Technology.
If you plan to pursue a bachelor's degree in these areas, you are strongly encouraged to use GTCC’s Academic Advising services, as the transfer process for each college/university is specific to that institution. In addition, the ability to transfer coursework from GTCC may differ by institution. It is important that you discuss curriculum and transfer requirements with your assigned faculty academic advisor at GTCC and with the transfer advisor at the four-year institution of your choice during your first year of study.
