College Transfer
Degrees Available
Starting your four-year journey at WCC can save you thousands of dollars in tuition and fees and improve your chances of admission and scholarships to your top choice colleges and universities. We offer three associate degrees designed specifically for four-year transfer: Associate of Arts (A.A.), Associate of Science (A.S.), and Associate in Engineering (A.E.).
Ensuring a smooth transfer isn’t only about completing an associate degree; it’s about establishing a clear plan from day one at WCC, and then choosing the right courses each term to position yourself for the major and the four-year school you desire to attend.

Articulation Agreements & University Partnerships
The North Carolina Comprehensive Articulation Agreement (CAA) addresses the admission of community college graduates to UNC institutions and the transfer of credits between institutions within the NC Community College System and the institutions within The University of North Carolina. The CAA provides certain assurances to the transferring student; for example:
- Assures admission to one of the 16 UNC institutions (Transfer Assured Admissions Policy)
- Enables NC community college graduates of two-year Associate in Arts and Associate in Science degree programs who are admitted to constituent institutions of the University of NC to transfer with junior status.
Aside from the CAA, Wayne Community College has also established additional agreements and pathways with specific four-year institutions. These include:
- East Carolina University Partnership East
- East Carolina University: Pirate Promise
- UNC Wilmington: Pathway to Excellence Program
- Western Governors University North Carolina
