Some differences between my first college and UMF? Here, it’s super-easy to get involved in things, you can do so much — even if it’s brand new to you. So, I take a dance cardio class at the Fitness Center and I’m totally out of my element but I absolutely love it. I never miss a class.

Attending a Maine Community College? You may be guaranteed admission to UMF!
The new Transfer ME agreement between the UMaine System and Maine Community College System will guarantee admission to UMF for students in many Maine Community College degree programs.
Transfer ME means:
- No Application
- No Application Fees
- No Test Score Submissions
- No Recommendation Letters
- No Transcripts
- No Admissions Essays
The Transfer ME program is open to students pursuing degrees in dozens of fields – ranging from Early Childhood Education, Accounting to Biology and more – once they have completed their Associate’s degree.
Reverse Credit Transfer Option
The University of Maine System, which includes UMF, and Maine Community College System also have a Reverse Credit Transfer agreement that allows you to earn an Associate’s degree or Certificate at your Community College by combining credits from a UMaine System University with credits you previously earned from your Community College.
This means you can transfer to UMF before completing your Maine Community College Associate’s degree or Certificate — your UMF credits will satisfy your Associate’s degree or Certificate requirements.
Just complete and submit the Reverse Credit Transfer Form (pdf)
Contact Isaac Seigle, below, for more information or assistance filling out the form.
UMF Named a 2024 “Most Transfer-friendly College in the Nation”
— Phi Theta Kappa, the official honor society for community colleges
UMF is recognized as one of the most transfer-friendly colleges in the nation by Phi Theta Kappa, the official honor society for community colleges. Farmington is named to the honor society’s 2024 Transfer Honor Roll for excellence in the development and support of innovative pathways that help community college students easily transfer to the four-year university.
Phi Theta Kappa honor society recognizes the academic achievement of students at associate degree-granting colleges.
It is comprised of more than 4.3 million members and nearly 1,300 chapters in 11 countries, with approximately 240,000 active members in the nation’s colleges.

Want to Transfer into our Teacher Education programs? It’s easy.
We know many of you want to transfer to UMF for our outstanding Teacher Education programs, so we’ve streamlined the process to make it even easier and more personalized. We offer Education degrees in:
We truly value Transfer students like you.
We appreciate the wisdom and different perspectives you bring to our campus. You’ve experienced someplace else and you had the courage and conviction to know you know what you want … and what you don’t want.
That’s bold. Gutsy. Independent. And we like that.
Farmington has a lot of Transfer students — in fact, it’s one of our fastest-growing group of students, so you’ll fit right in. And it has been our experience that Transfer students have been among our strongest, most motivated, and successful students. Like them, you’ll do great things here. We believe in you.
At Farmington, we major in personal attention.
We understand that at large universities you can sometimes feel like you’re treated like a number, that you’re an anonymous face in a vast sea of other people. Enormous lecture halls, mobs of people, professors who don’t even know your name. (We hear this from students who transfer here from big schools.)
We’re the alternative to a big, impersonal school. Here, you’ll get to know everyone and everyone will get to know you.
Thirty+ majors. A national reputation. Internship opportunities. A friendly, close-knit campus. All at an affordable price. Here, it’s all About YOU.
The University of Maine at Farmington is a small, friendly, close-knit campus where students are the center of the universe. Our small classes are taught by caring, dedicated professors. Though many of our faculty members are nationally recognized experts in their fields, they have a passion for teaching and take the time to get to know their students.
Sharing ideas, debating issues, collaborating with students on a research project, holding office hours to review a term paper, or helping with a tricky assignment, our professors will become an active part of your life. And some will even become treasured lifelong mentors. This doesn’t happen at all schools, but it IS part of The Farmington Way.
