Maryland Transfer Advantage Program

Maryland Transfer Advantage Program

The Maryland Transfer Advantage Program (MTAP) provides a pathway for students at participating community colleges to earn an undergraduate degree at the University of Maryland (UMD).

Students who participate in MTAP have access to transfer advising resources, can take discounted courses at UMD, and are guaranteed admission to the university upon successful completion of the program and submission of a transfer application by the early action application deadline.

Still have questions about MTAP?

Please review our frequently asked questions. You can reach out to Pre-Transfer Advising directly for questions pertaining to course selection. 

We've added advising hours! If you've read through the FAQs and still have questions about MTAP, you can meet with our staff on Thursdays from 1:00-3:00 p.m. Sign up below. 

Expectations for advising hours:

  • Come prepared with questions regarding MTAP or the transfer process. (Course selection questions should be directed to Pre-Transfer Advising)
  • Arrive promptly to your appointment. If you arrive 10 or more minutes late, your appointment will be cancelled.
  • Appointments are for prospective students. While students are welcome to invite others to join in, the student must be present for the meeting to occur.
