Ohio Consortium for Transfer Pathways
Ohio Consortium for Transfer Pathways to the Liberal Arts
Ohio Dominican is a proud member of the Ohio Consortium for Transfer Pathways to the Liberal Arts, a group of 25 two- and four-year colleges working together to provide clear, consistent transfer pathways in Biology, English and Psychology for community college students transferring to ODU and other private colleges in Ohio.
These transfer pathways align with the Ohio Guaranteed Transfer Pathways (OGTPs) in Biology, English and Psychology, which ensure that associate degrees from Ohio’s community colleges provide a clear path to colleges and universities across the state, and allow you to stay on track to graduate with your bachelor’s degree!
Ohio Dominican and other partner institutions have signed a Transfer Pledge as our commitment to your success as a transfer student.
Here are the benefits for you:
- Transfer pathways give you clarity in the courses you take from many different community colleges and assurance that your courses will transfer smoothly toward your bachelor’s degree at ODU.
- You’ll transfer with introductory major and most general education courses complete.
- With the associate degree and transfer pathway, students can transfer to ODU as a college junior, with maximum credit counting toward the major and bachelor’s degree. Be sure to check with a transfer advisor to make sure you meet GPA and other admission requirements.
- Once you’ve enrolled at ODU, you can complete your bachelor’s degree in as little as two years, enrolled as a full-time student.
- Transfer advisors at ODU and community colleges are working together for your success. We’re happy to answer any questions you may have, and will guide you every step of the way.
