Ohio Transfer 36

The transfer of credits from one Ohio public college or university to another has now been guaranteed with the development of Ohio Transfer 36 by the Ohio Department of Higher Education for students with acceptable academic records.

Students may take advantage of Ohio Transfer 36, which guarantees the transfer of a minimum of 36 semester credit hours of specified courses from Stark State to any Ohio public college or university and vice versa in six different subject areas: 1) English Composition and Oral Communication, 2) Mathematics, Statistics and Logic, 3) Arts and Humanities, 4) Social and Behavioral Sciences, 5) Natural Sciences and 6) Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.  The table below provides a detailed listing of Ohio Transfer 36 courses students may take at Stark State.

Students who successfully complete the Ohio Transfer 36 at one public college or university (such as Stark State College) will have met the Ohio Transfer 36 requirements of the college (university) to which they transfer. However, students may be required to meet additional general education requirements. Students are encouraged to meet with counselors at both institutions to receive the necessary information and advice. A student must complete all minimum General Education requirements in Ohio Transfer 36 in order to ensure complete transferability of all Ohio Transfer 36 credits.

Information about the transfer of college credit can be found at the Ohio Department of Higher Education.

For further information, please call the Office of Admissions at 330-494-6170, ext. 4228 or 1-800-79-STARK.
