Why Ferris at SMC?

Save Money

You can transfer a total of up to 90 credits from SMC into your Ferris program (traditional community college-to-university transfers only transfer up to 60 credits). This means you can pay SMC’s low tuition rate for the majority of your classes, significantly lowering the overall cost of the program. Bonus: Out-of-state students pay Ferris’s in-state tuition. 

Save Time

Many SMC programs are designed to ladder seamlessly into Ferris programs, so you don’t lose any credits or waste time on classes that don’t transfer.
