Missouri

The institutions participating in CWID in Missouri include all public institutions and any private institutions that volunteer to participate. Six high-volume transfer institutions are piloting reverse transfer implementation in Fall 2013 and Spring 2014. One of the motivating forces of reverse transfer in Missouri is House Bill 1042, which mandates all public institutions must participate in reverse transfer by 2014. Visit the Missouri Department of Higher Education’s Reverse Transfer Website to learn more about Missouri's reverse transfer process.
