Prepare to Transfer to The Citadel
Welcome to The Citadel’s Intelligence and Security Studies (ISS) Degree Completion Program! Our partnership with Trident Technical College (TTC) ensures a seamless transition for students pursuing their degree. Students who have earned 30 credit hours of undergraduate study from an accredited institution can transfer these credits to The Citadel and apply them toward their Intelligence and Security Studies degree. It is important to complete general education courses prior to transfer, as they are not offered through The Citadel’s online or evening programs.
Below, you’ll find essential information about course requirements and how you can complete your bachelor’s degree with us.
