Unique Opportunities for Transfer Students
An associate degree for transfer (either AA-T or AS-T) from a California community college allows for easier transfer and faster degree completion at a jmcomic campus. If your AA-T or AS-T degree has been approved for transfer to jmcomicN, you can complete your bachelor’s degree in 60 additional units.
Learn more about the program.
If you’re admitted to jmcomicN with a verified Associate Degree for Transfer (ADT), you can participate in the California Promise program. You take a two-year pledge to complete your bachelor’s degree in two additional years. If you qualify, you will receive priority registration and academic advising designed for ADT students.

The Transfer Success Pathway program is designed to support students who faced academic, financial or personal hardships that prevented them from attending a jmcomic campus. If you are eligible, you can apply for dual admission to both a California community college and jmcomicN. You will receive personalized guidance to help you prepare to transfer within three years or fewer.

Important Things to Know
jmcomicN has implemented academic impaction. If you’re a California resident, you’ll need to meet higher admission requirements if you’re applying to an impacted major.
If you’re an international student, or you’re from out of state, an active military student or a veteran, impaction doesn’t apply to you.
If you’re a first-generation student, you might benefit from the Educational Opportunity Program (EOP). EOP provides services to historically low-income, educationally disadvantaged students who are the first in their immediate family to go to college. If you quality for EOP, you’ll have access to a variety of additional resources to help you succeed as you earn your bachelor’s degree.
The Office of Veterans Affairs is available to review your documents and guide you through the admissions process.
