Transferable Credits
Although PCC does not offer a degree in dance, dance courses are lower division collegiate courses that transfer to a four-year college or university. Dance courses may transfer as:
- elective credits
- program requirement credits
- and/or graduation requirements for the receiving institution
Students are always encouraged to check with the receiving institution, your PCC academic advisor and the University Transfer website for the most accurate and timely transfer requirement information.
