Finish your SJC credential while earning your FLC bachelor's degree

If you transfer from San Juan College (SJC) to Fort Lewis College before completing your associate degree or certificate, you may still be able to earn that credential.

Through Reverse Transfer, eligible coursework completed at FLC can count toward your remaining SJC requirements. You can continue working toward your bachelor's degree at FLC while making progress toward an SJC associate degree or certificate.
