Transferring credits to Westwood College
Westwood College has established articulation agreements with select high schools and colleges enabling students to achieve advanced standing at Westwood.* Under these agreements, students are able to apply previous college level credits earned in the past towards their degree fulfillment at Westwood.
If your organization is interested in creating an articulation agreement with Westwood College, please call 303-846-1727 or email us.
To determine if your college credits are transferable, please contact the Westwood College academic department at the campus location in which you are interested.
Transferring Westwood College credits to other colleges
No college can guarantee the transferability of its credits to any other institution unless there is a written articulation agreement with that institution. A list of our articulation agreements is below. Transferability of credit is always determined by the receiving institution. It is the student’s responsibility to confirm whether an institution will accept credits from Westwood. If you are considering transferring or continuing your education at another institution we strongly recommend that you research this issue with the institutions you are considering for the future.
In most cases your Westwood credits will not be transferable to other schools. Westwood makes no promise that Westwood credits will transfer to another institution unless Westwood has a written articulation agreement with that institution. For example, if you entered our school as a freshman, you will still be a freshman if you enter another college or university at some time in the future, even though you earned units here at Westwood College. In addition, if you earn a degree, diploma, or certificate at Westwood, that credential will not serve as a basis for obtaining a higher-level degree at another college or university unless Westwood has a written articulation agreement with that institution.
Westwood College requires all students to sign an agreement of their understanding of transferability of Westwood College credits as part of the enrollment process.
