What is the CVC Exchange?

The CVC Exchange is an innovative, student-centered tool that allows students currently enrolled in a California Community College to instantly enroll in online courses offered at eligible colleges without filling out a separate application. You can enroll in transfer courses not currently available at your Home College to complete your general education requirements, in addition to taking courses required for transferring to a four-year university.

Commonly Asked Questions

- What are the eligibility requirements?
  Only students enrolled in at least one credit course at participating colleges are eligible to cross
  enroll. Students must also meet the following requirements:
  - Have at least a 2.0 GPA or not yet established GPA at the Home College
  - Have no outstanding fees at the Home College
  - No out of state address on file at the Home College
- Do I qualify for financial aid?
  
  All participating Teaching Colleges have signed a Federal Financial Aid agreement. As such CVC
  Exchange students simultaneously enrolled at both Home and Teaching College may be able to
  receive federal and state financial aid funds based on combined units taken at both colleges.
  Eligibility will be determined by the student’s Home College.
- Do my DSPS accommodations transfer from my Home College to the Teaching College?
  
  A student's Disabled Student Programs and Services (DSPS) status or accommodations
  determination will not automatically transfer to the Teaching College. Students using
  the Exchange will have to apply separately at both colleges to receive DSPS services and
  classroom accommodations. See below for more information about DSPS at Mt. SAC
