Transfer Programs are designed to position you for a successful transfer to a four year college in order to complete a Bachelor's degree.
The earlier you identify your transfer institution, the easier it will be to align your Barton program of study to fit the transfer institution's requirements.
Barton has many Transfer & Articulation Agreements with four year colleges that specifically direct your studies in certain programs for seamless transition from Barton to the transfer school. If none of our Transfer & Articulation Agreements match your educational goals, the Kansas Public Colleges and Universities Transfer Agreement and Articulation Guide will help you to meet the requirements necessary to graduate from Barton and transfer successfully to the public universities in Kansas.
If you plan to transfer outside the state of Kansas, it will be very helpful to identify your transfer institution early and work with that school's guidelines in order to ensure a smooth transfer. Your academic advisor is happy to help, or your may contact the Advisement Center: advisement@bartonccc.edu
Transferring from Barton to Another Institution
Kansas Public Community Colleges - Kansas Public Universities
A student who completes an Associate of Arts or Associate of Science degree based on a baccalaureate oriented sequence at a state and regionally accredited Kansas public community college, and whose program of study has met the requirements of the Kansas Public Community College-Kansas Public University Transfer Agreement and Articulation Guide, will be accepted with junior standing and will have satisfied the general education requirements of all Kansas public universities.

High School to Barton Community College
Barton Community College has established state-wide articulation agreements to assist secondary (high school) students in continuing their education. Articulation agreements provide a systematic, seamless student transition process from secondary to postsecondary (community colleges) education that maximizes the use of resources and minimizes content duplication.
What is State-Wide Articulation?
Articulation offers high school students the opportunity to earn Barton Community College academic credit for approved high school educational experiences based upon evaluation of curriculum conducted by faculty at both the secondary and post-secondary level and approved by Kansas Department of Education.
