Massachusetts Guarantee

Where To Begin

Complete your associate degree at a Massachusetts community college and transfer to a participating four-year independent college in the state - admission guaranteed!

What is an independent college?

Independent colleges and universities, also known as private institutions, operate outside of the Massachusetts public system of higher education.

HOW IT WORKS

The Massachusetts Guarantee is a partnership agreement between the state’s community colleges and private colleges and universities. Modeled upon the MassTransfer A2B program, Massachusetts community college graduates are able to expand their transfer options, while staying on track to complete their degree.
