Prepare to Transfer to The Citadel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Welcome to The Citadel’s Strength and Conditioning Degree Completion Program<\/strong>. Designed for transfer students and working professionals, this fully online program prepares students for careers in strength and conditioning, sport performance, and tactical human performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you are transferring from a technical college, community college, four-year institution, or returning to complete your bachelor’s degree, The Citadel provides a flexible pathway to degree completion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students entering the program must have completed at least 30 college-level credit hours<\/strong> at a regionally accredited institution prior to enrollment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To maximize transfer credit and reduce the number of courses needed after transfer, prospective students are encouraged to complete as many general education requirements as possible before enrolling. The information below outlines recommended coursework and transfer planning resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Planning Your Transfer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Strength and Conditioning Degree Completion Program is designed for students who have already completed college-level coursework. While transfer credit is evaluated on an individual basis, students who complete the general education requirements listed below are often able to transition more efficiently into major coursework upon enrollment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
