Oregon Transfer Module (OTM) Requirements

The Oregon Transfer Module (OTM) provides a one year (45 credit) curriculum for students who plan to transfer to an Oregon community college or university. The module allows students to complete 45 credits of general education foundation course work that is academically sound and will meet the admission standards of the receiving school. The OTM is not a certificate or degree. Completing the OTM allows students to seamlessly transfer 45 credits of general education requirements to any Oregon community college, Oregon public university, or participating independent college or university. The receiving institution may specify additional coursework that is required for a major or for degree requirements, or to make up the difference between the Transfer Module and the institution’s total General Education requirements.

Students should work closely with an academic advisor to ensure selection of appropriate course work. Upon transfer, students may be required to complete additional course work in General Education, or an academic major, that is specific to the receiving institution. Students who transfer prior to the completion of the Oregon Transfer Module will have their courses individually evaluated by the receiving institution.

All courses must be completed with a grade of C or higher. Students must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 at the time the module is completed. Students are advised to take all courses for the OTM for a letter grade. Many colleges and universities have a limit on the number of Pass/Fail courses students can take.
