Program Information and Eligibility

The BCTCblue+ program allows currently enrolled BCTC students the opportunity to take classes at UK, paying our tuition rate.  BCTC students can take up to 12 credits, or 4 classes (whichever comes first).  There is not a set schedule for taking classes; it depends on the UK program and any needed prerequisites, as the classes at UK cannot be offered at BCTC.  Students accepted into the program must meet with the UK program advisor each semester to discuss their individual plan (instructions will be sent after being admitted).

Eligibility for the program is based on the following criteria:

  • Plan to transfer to UK
  • Enrolled in a BCTC Associate in Arts or Associate in Science (cannot have earned a degree)
  • Completed 1 full-time semester at BCTC
  • Earned at least 12 transferrable credits 
  • Have a current 2.0 GPA or higher @ BCTC

Applications windows are open:

  • Fall Classes: February 1st-28th
  • Spring Classes: September 1st–30th

In-person Blue+ advising deadlines (you will receive instructions after applying):

  • Fall Classes: May 1
