Transfer Agreements

Below you will find the approved agreements that exist between the Maine Community College System, the University of Maine System, and other New England-based schools. These documents detail the qualifications and requirements for admission, as well as the coursework a student must complete at the sending institution and then at the University of Southern Maine (USM). We are always working on establishing new agreements, and we allow some to lapse if the course equivalencies are repetitive, so this list changes with some frequency.

For information regarding USM’s Core Curriculum, including courses available at your community college that fulfill USM’s Core requirements, view Transfer Credits and the USM Core.

For information regarding transfer equivalencies between USM and other University of Maine system institutions, please visit our Transfer Equivalency Tables in MaineStreet.
