What If I Have An Associate Degree Or Credit For Prior Learning?
Expand or Shrink Accordion
Transfer Guidance Element What You Need to Know
Associate Transfer Degree Completion Completion of the general education certificate or a transfer-oriented associate degree program will guarantee completion of the University Core general education component of the ODU undergraduate curriculum but may not fulfill specific departmental requirements or prerequisites needed for the major.

With an Associates of Science in Business Administration, students who enter into the BSBA Management program start with their junior level course work, pending that the lower level business courses included in the associates degree are completed with a grade of C or better. Additionally, courses required for admission into the BSBA Management program can be completed as part of the Associate in Business Administration as they are requirements to complete the associates. This helps students meet eligibility for admission into the Bachelor of Science in Business Administration program at Old Dominion University. For students completing an Associates of Science degree from VCCS, students may enter as a junior with general education requirements met as indicated in the pathway map.
Completion of Associate Degree Concurrent with High School With a completed transferrable Associate Degree from VCCS, students may enter ODU as a junior with lower division education requirements considered met as indicated in the pathway map. Even if the Associate Degree was completed concurrently while completing their high school requirements.
Credit for Prior Learning The Office of Prior Learning exists to aid ODU students in translating their professional work knowledge into academic credit. Through the use of various mechanisms, we are able to offer students the opportunity to have their prior learning assessed and applied for academic credit. This path may save the students both time and money as they work toward their degree. If you have military experience, please use our course by course equivalency tool to see how your experiences will transfer.
Did You Know That...
  • Completing your Associate transfer degree post-high school satisfies all lower division general education requirements and increases the chance of completing your bachelor's degree?
  • Exceeding 3 years or 90 credits at your community college means you may have exhausted your financial aid at that college and have limited your future financial aid at: Old Dominion University
