Transfer Students

The College of Education wants to welcome transfer students from community colleges to our certification programs.

We know that transferring may seem challenging, so we want to help make the process as easy as possible. If you are planning to transfer to the University of Arizona, College of Education, you can contact an academic advisor at the University of Arizona right away for an advising appointment. Academic advisors will meet with you along the way to make sure that your transfer is successful.

Before you schedule an appointment with an advisor, complete the On-Line General Information Session (GIS). The GIS provides important information to your advisor to help you plan your program, gives you information about our programs and admission requirements, and helps develop questions about your transfer process.

After completing the GIS, call (520) 621-7865 to schedule an appointment with the appropriate advisor.

Students are assigned to an advisor according to the first letter of your last name. The advisors are:
Students with last names beginning A – F:    Nicole Kontak
Students with last names beginning G – O:   Kathleen Humphrey
Students with last names beginning Q – Z     Kerith Lisa

We also encourage you to sign up for our pre-education listserv. The listserv is a weekly message from the College of Education that gives students information about:

  • important dates, deadlines, and admission information
  • opportunities and events that are open to pre-education students
  • volunteer and paid positions to gain experience with children

To sign up for the listserv, please email edadvise@email.arizona.edu

The College of Education has articulation agreements with the community colleges in Arizona. You can access them at : http://aztransfer.com/home. Advisors will help you translate these agreements and apply them to your program of study. In addition, we encourage students transferring from community colleges in Arizona to complete an Arizona General Education Curriculum (AGEC) to facilitate your transfer process. Please speak with an advisor at an Arizona comunity colloege to discuss options for completing coursework leading to an AGEC.
