Transferring Courses If you plan to transfer to Muhlenberg, make an appointment with an advisor as early in your studies as possible. Our academic advisors, all former adult students themselves, are here to help you explore your options and identify the course of study that best suits your academic and career objectives. This handbook provides information useful to students planning to transfer from Northampton Community College to Muhlenberg College Wescoe School of Continuing Education. We strive to make the transition to Muhlenberg as easy as possible for each student. If you have questions or need assistance, call the Wescoe School at The Wescoe School accepts transfer courses from similarly accredited community colleges and four year colleges/universities. While an official, sealed transcript will be required for formal transfer of credits, an unofficial transcript or grade report will be useful when you have your initial meeting with a Wescoe advisor. This will allow us to provide you with an understanding of which courses will be approved for transfer and outline an individualized pathway to completion of your degree. In addition to previous college coursework, we can also help identify alternative sources for credit such as CLEP testing, military service/training, and Credit for Prior Learning (as recommended by American Council for Education standards).
