GCU Transfer Center

The Grand Canyon University Transfer Center is a hub for students transferring to GCU. Whether you attended a community college or a university, we are here to assist you in evaluating and anticipating your transfer opportunities and needs.

Maricopa County Community College District (MCCCD) students can easily transfer college credits toward a bachelor's degree at GCU. Whether you take a few classes to brush up on some skills or you complete an associate degree, you will find that many of the credits you earn at a Maricopa Community College will transfer to GCU.

Use the GCU transfer guides below to review course equivalency guides and applicable associate degrees when transferring colleges to GCU. Contact your transfer specialist to learn more.

Maricopa County Community Colleges work in conjunction with Arizona's universities through the Reverse Transfer initiative. This initiative provides students with the opportunity to utilize credits completed at the university to meet the requirements of an Associate level degree. This milestone can aid students in their career paths and provide them with the continued motivation needed as they work toward their baccalaureate degree. Apply for a reverse transfer by filling out the application form.

If you are earning a degree from a Maricopa Community College, you may be able to seamlessly transition into a four-year program at GCU. Our guides outline the preferred courses that will be applicable towards a bachelor's degree from GCU.

GCU will review courses completed at another community college or university, and credit earned at these institutions may be applied to a degree program offered at GCU based on our transfer policies.

The GCU Transfer Center has formed Articulation Agreements with a number of institutions, matching the coursework to maximize the use of resources, minimize duplicate coursework and help you make a smooth transition when transferring colleges to GCU. Below is a list of schools with which we currently have Articulation Agreements.

If you are currently or planning on attending one of these institutions, please work directly with your university counselor, who will guide you into the correct program at GCU.

GCU will still evaluate and award credit for institutions not listed below based on our transfer policies. You can have your unofficial transcript evaluated and, in as few as 24 hours, a university counselor will contact you with an estimated number of credits earned, an anticipated graduation date and preliminary schedule.
