Transfer Pathways
Our Associate of Arts degree provides a high-quality educational foundation for your bachelor’s degree, costing half the price and transferring seamlessly to the four-year college or university of your choice. Many pathways have been created to satisfy the first two years of the most popular bachelor’s programs. If you do not see a pathway you are interested in, please check with your advisor to develop a pathway that works for you!

CORE 42
The CORE 42 ensures all students complete a common core of college-level courses, and Three Rivers College offers these courses that are guaranteed to transfer to all public (and participating independent) colleges and universities in Missouri.

Bachelor’s Degree Completion Programs
Three Rivers College also provides a place close to home to complete your bachelor’s or master’s degree. The University Center partners with Central Methodist University, Hannibal-LaGrange University and Southeast Missouri State University to offer degree completion programs on our main campus, external locations or online.
Missouri Reverse Transfer
Earn the associate’s degree you started while pursuing your bachelor’s degree, and potentially meeting general education requirements at your four-year institution. Students who have completed credits for an associate’s degree can receive that degree, even if they have transferred to a different college or university or withdrew from higher education. Your associate’s degree can help you advance your career, qualify for more jobs and earn more money. More detailed information on Missouri Reverse Transfer can be found at the Missouri Department of Higher Education.
Eligibility
If you’ve earned a minimum of 15 credit hours at a single two-year institution, you’re eligible for a reverse transfer degree. You are not eligible if you currently possess an associate’s degree or higher.
Start Your Reverse Transfer
