Over the years, North Seattle Community College has helped thousands of students transfer successfully to a four-year university.  Study for your first two years in a supportive and small environment at a college, then transfer directly into the third year at a major university.  The best part is that a university bachelor’s degree is exactly the same whether students study four years at a university or study their first two years at a community college and then transfer to a university. 

Some of the reasons why students choose the University Transfer program:

• Smaller classes – usually less than 30 students; universities can have 300 or more students in a class
• Personalized attention – teachers and staff have more time to assist you with your needs and questions
• Simple admission-download an application form here.   Acceptance materials sent free of charge by express mail (select countries)
• No TOEFL required – an English placement assessment test is given upon arrival and Intensive English courses are provided if needed.    

NSCC also offers conditional acceptance to the following universities:

San Francisco State University

Eastern Washington University

Hawaii Pacific University

Purdue School of Engineering & Technology	University of Oregon

When you apply to North Seattle Community College, indicate on the application form which university you would like to receive conditional acceptance from.  We will send you acceptance material from NSCC and the University of your choice.

“I spent my first two years at NSCC and then transferred to the University of Washington where I graduated as a business major.  I know I made the right decision in choosing NSCC as my starting point of my college life in the USA.  Not only did NSCC provide me with quality education to help me succeed in my academic life, but it also supported me in overcoming the culture shock when I first arrived here.  I received an excellent academic foundation and personal support.  My experience was wonderful and I always refer North Seattle Community College to my friends and family.”
