Transfer Electives

Transfer Electives for Piedmont Virginia Community College’s Associate of Arts and Sciences (AA and AS) degree programs must be taken from the courses listed below. These approved courses will satisfy graduation requirements in transfer degree programs.

PLEASE NOTE: PVCC degree requirements do not necessarily fulfill the general education requirements for other institutions. Some of the courses listed may not transfer to every four-year college or university. Before selecting electives, you should consult the transfer guide of prospective colleges and universities, contact prospective institutions to inquire about the transferability of particular courses, and check with a Piedmont Virginia Community College advisor in the Admissions and Advising Center.

Note to students transferring credits TO PVCC:
Transferred courses may fulfill a requirement under PVCC’s approved electives (above). To receive credit for a specific PVCC elective from transferred courses, registrar’s approval will be required.

Note to students transferring credits FROM PVCC TO FOUR-YEAR INSTITUTIONS:
Although a course fulfills a requirement for a PVCC program, it is possible the same course will not fulfill a requirement at a four-year institution. Students who plan to transfer need to be aware of the four-year institution’s requirements.
