UNC system makes transferring college credits easier

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — Transferring credits between North Carolina’s higher education systems just got easier.

The University of North Carolina launched its ‘common numbering system‘ late last week.

It’s a database helping students, advisors and others by identifying which credits transfer between community colleges and schools in the UNC system.

A-B Tech’s vice president of student services says the new system makes it clear what courses students need to take, ultimately saving them money.
