2026-2027 Undergraduate Catalog

CCV STEM Studies (AS) to VTSU Data Science & Applied Statistics (BS)

Catalog Year: 2026-2027

Program Code: S.BS.DAS.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.
