Illinois Articulation Initiative (IAI)

��ñ�� accepts coursework designated by the Illinois Articulation Initiative (IAI), a statewide articulation agreement between participating institutions that facilitates the seamless transfer of general education courses and select major courses.

The evaluation of domestic coursework taken at a regionally accredited college or university within the United States is completed by the Office of Undergraduate Admission at the time of admission to a baccalaureate degree program. Official college transcripts are required for each institution the student previously attended and are submitted with the admission application to ��ñ��. Courses may be acceptable for transfer credit from regionally accredited colleges and universities provided they are comparable in scope and level to those offered at ��ñ��, and the grades are the equivalent of a “C” or higher. Grades of “C-” are not acceptable for transferable course credit.

A maximum of 68 transfer course credit hours from a two-year institution may be applicable to an ��ñ�� undergraduate degree program. There is no maximum number of hours of transfer credit from a four-year college; however, the final 45 semester hours of any undergraduate degree program must be completed in residence at ��ñ��.

Course unit values that are based on a quarter-hour system will be converted into semester hour unit values:

5 quarter credit hours = 3.33 semester credit hours
4 quarter credit hours = 2.67 semester credit hours
3 quarter credit hours = 2 semester credit hours
2 quarter credit hours = 1.33 semester credit hours
1 quarter credit hour = 0.67 semester credit hours
