Tuition- and fee-free for eligible Massachusetts residents

Through MassEducate and MassReconnect, eligible Massachusetts residents who haven’t earned a bachelor’s degree can attend RCC tuition- and fee-free. Maximize your low- to no-cost transfer options at area colleges and universities.

Transfer as a proven student

Four-year colleges look closely at transfer students who arrive with their general education done and a strong GPA. Those students are often competitive for admission, merit scholarships, and other opportunities.

A Liberal Arts associate degree from RCC is built for transfer. It is designed to meet the MassTransfer General Education Foundation and open the door to MassTransfer A2B benefits at Massachusetts public universities.

Students may have additional courses to complete depending on their major at the four-year college or university. Work with your advisor to plan for your intended transfer program.
