 Insider tips for an easy transfer

• 60+ Programs = Your full associate degree applies to a qualifying DU degree leaving only 60+ credits to complete (2 years or less)
• Follow a 3+1 for maximum transfer benefits. Work directly with your personal Admissions Representative to map out your plan.
• Choose ENGL 110 and MATH 116 at KVCC to satisfy the DU English & math acceptance requirements (and maximize your transfer credits)
• You can take DU and KVCC classes in the same semester with Consortium. Use DU financial aid to help cover the cost of both. A great option to help you complete your Associate degree requirements while you step forward to your Bachelor's degree.
