Missouri Looks to Ease College Transfer Rules - Associated Press
Some higher education leaders in Missouri are seeking to make it easier for students to transfer to another school, reasoning that some college is better than none and that transfer students shouldn’t be penalized by being forced to take duplicative classes to get their degrees. A bill filed by state Sen. David Pearce, R- Warrensburg, calls for the creation of a “core transfer library” of at least 25 entry-level courses in English, math, science and other general education subjects that would be honored for credit at each of Missouri’s public colleges and universities.
