2. When can I transfer to a four-year college?
Most colleges will want to see a minimum of 12-24 college-level credits completed. That means you will probably not be able to transfer until you have been at BCC for two semesters. Some colleges require you to complete a year of English Composition before they will consider you as a transfer student.
