A college that helps you save time and cut costs
A student is able to earn a bachelor’s in information technology degree in four years if completing an average of 12 credits per quarter. The student may be able to complete the program in less time if receiving credit for prior learning and experience. We invite students who are already working in the field or who have attended college previously to inquire about this policy. It can save a student both time and money, as UCC does not charge tuition for transfer credits.
