Transcript evaluation

Transcripts are typically evaluated on a course-by-course basis, so this evaluation cannot be done via email or over the phone. Courses not offered by MCC are not transferred in nor are courses that are less in credit/quarter hours than the courses offered at MCC.

The following parameters are used to evaluate transcripts:

  • Institution must be regionally accredited by one of the following agencies:
    • Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools, Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE)
    • New England Association of Schools and Colleges, Commission on Institutions of Higher Education (NEASC-CIHE)
    • The Higher Learning Commission (HLC)
    • Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU)
    • Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, Commission on Colleges (SACS)
    • Western Association of Schools and Colleges, Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (WASC-ACCJC)
    • Western Association of Schools and Colleges, Accrediting Commission for Senior Colleges and Universities (WASC-ACSCU)
  • Course content must be similar to MCC’s
  • Grade of C or better must have been received
  • Credit hours must be equal
  • Courses are evaluated based on the program of study and general education requirements

If students change their academic program, a re-evaluation may be requested by completing a re-evaluation form. Visit https://www.mccneb.edu/Prospective-Students/Resources/Student-Services-SOS/Records/Transcript-Re-evaluation-Form.aspx for the form.

Once a transcript is evaluated, a postcard is sent informing the student that the results have been posted.  A letter is sent if no credits are transferred.
