2026-2027 Undergraduate Catalog

CCV STEM Certificate to VTSU Mechanical Engineering Technology (AE, BS)


Catalog Year: 2026-2027

Program Codes: S.AE.MEC.PTH; S.BS.MEC.PTH 

This transfer pathway will help you plan courses at the Community College of Vermont (CCV) that will meet course specific requirements at Vermont State University (VTSU).

  • CCV and VTSU are both a part of the Vermont State College System (VSCS). Students have one common VSCS transcript. As such, courses taken at CCV are not considered transfer credit.
  • VTSU is a partner in the Vermont Transfer Guarantee, https://ccv.edu/academics/transfer-from-ccv/vermont-transfer-guarantee/  
  • Students who have completed an associate degree at CCV will have completed all associate-level general education requirements at VTSU.
  • VTSU accepts all general education credits and associate’s level VSCS graduation standards from CCV.
  • Transfer courses from regionally accredited institutions will be accepted if grades are C- or better

Join this transfer pathway by completing the CCV to VTSU Pathways Form.
