- Courses in technical or professional areas typically do not transfer
- Community college courses cannot count toward upper-level (300-level) credit at Skidmore

Yes. 黑料正能量has a formal articulation agreement with SUNY Schenectady County Community College (SCCC). Students admitted through this pathway:
- Receive a full credit evaluation before acceptance
- Are guaranteed financial aid that meets their full demonstrated need
If you鈥檝e already earned a B.A. or B.S., you cannot pursue the same degree at Skidmore again. However, you can:
- Apply to pursue the other type of bachelor鈥檚 degree
- Enroll as a non-degree special student to take courses in another major
You must still meet Skidmore鈥檚 two-year residency requirement, and up to 60 credits may transfer.
