Admitted degree-seeking students transferring to BBCC will be given appropriate credit for coursework completed at a regionally accredited institution. Students must submit official transcripts from each institution attended to the Admissions/Registration Office for evaluation. Credit will be awarded based on official college transcripts only. The cumulative grade point average of all credits accepted for transfer must be 2.00 or higher. Although there is no limit on the number of credits a student may transfer to BBCC before graduating, the student must meet all BBCC degree requirements, including residency requirements (see Degree and Certificate Requirements section). Additional information about the transfer evaluation process is available on the BBCC website here: https://www.bigbend.edu/student-center/prior-learning.html.
BBCC subscribes to the statewide Policy on Inter-College Transfer and Articulation among Washington Public Colleges and Universities endorsed by the public colleges and universities of Washington State, the State Board for Community and Technical Colleges, and adopted by the Student Achievement Council.

In some programs (where appropriate), credits may also be given for military service training. These are normally awarded as recommended by the ACE Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experience in the Armed Services.
