Transfer Credit and Degree Applicability
- Community College courses can only
have transferable equivalents at the 1000-2000 level. At no time can a community college course
transfer in to be the equivalent of a 3000 or above MU course. If a
2000 level course title from a community college is similar to a 3000
level title on this campus, the course will be brought in as an elective
in that department and at the 2000 level. The individual Colleges and Schools
will have the prerogative of waiving the requirement for the student
to take a course with similar or same title on this campus, but there
will be no direct transfer equivalency.
- If a college/department wants to
accept a course from a community college as an equivalency to an
MU course numbered 3000 or higher, they need to renumber the MU course
to be a number less than 3000.
- Courses from a community college (CC) could account for 6 of the
last 36 credits, but only for students who for some reason had general
education or other 1000-2000 level course remaining for their degree.
(We are not prohibited from accepting CC credit for juniors and seniors,
if it is at the 1000-2000 level.)
- We only accept 64 credits from community colleges unless
additional hours are specified in an approved articulation agreement.
- Community college credit cannot be
used to meet 3000-level. They
do not have as part of their mission the offering of upper division
credit.
