Reverse Transfer Efficiency Act of 2021

The Reverse Transfer Efficiency Act of 2021 aims to make it easier for students who transfer from a community college to a four-year university to receive an associate’s degree. The bill would allow universities to share a student’s course credits back to their previous community college without requiring additional paperwork for every data transfer. This process, known as "reverse transfer," helps students earn a recognized credential for the work they have already completed, providing them with a valuable qualification even if they do not finish their four-year degree.
