Course Equivalency Sample Clauses

A Course Equivalency clause establishes the criteria and process for recognizing courses completed at one institution as equivalent to those offered at another. Typically, this involves a review of course content, credit hours, and learning outcomes to determine if a student's prior coursework meets the requirements of the receiving institution. For example, a student transferring from one university may have their introductory biology course evaluated to see if it fulfills the same requirement at their new school. The core function of this clause is to facilitate student mobility and ensure that academic progress is not unnecessarily delayed by redundant coursework.

The committee will review course submissions in accordance with the 70% similar or the same statute. Each course will be resubmitted every five years for review by the committee of content experts. The committee will be responsible for publishing and disseminating a transfer guide which includes (1) the state coursework agreement and (2) the list of approved courses at each of the institutions. INSTITUTIONAL RESPONSIBILITY Each institution shall have the responsibility of implementing the agreement and distributing the transfer guide to advisors, faculty advisors, and to students. Institutions shall be responsible for identifying each course listed in its course catalog that is also listed in this agreement. Courses shall be identified on the official and unofficial school transcript with a tilde (~) for general studies or with a carat (^) for course equivalencies on the lead character of the course title.

It is the responsibility of the student who is transferring from an in-state college or university to another in-state institution to be aware of the specific program requirements at the receiving institution.
