TRANSFER COURSES FOR THE IT MAJOR
Students who transfer into this program from another school may have some of these requirements met by previously completed coursework. When you come to the Beacon Beginnings New Student Orientation, an advisor will review your transfer credit evaluations and degree audit to see which requirements still remain to be completed at UMass Boston.
Students who are transferring from Bunker Hill Community College (BHCC) may want to refer to this BHCC Transfer Guide for IT Majors, which outlines specific equivalencies from BHCC for College of Management IT majors.
