Each of the transfer credit guide stipulates which courses at a particular community
college count for which courses at Pitt and binds the School Arts and
Sciences to accept those particular courses as specified in the booklets.
Many courses from other schools have no equivalent in A&S. These courses
are generally accepted as "elective courses." The A&S deans
regularly make decisions to allow some transfer courses to meet certain
requirements if the courses in question "meet the spirit" of the
requirement |

The current transfer credit guides with
each of these institutions allow students to take between 30 and 45 credits
prior to transferring. A sixty-credit articulation agreement was recently
signed with the Community College of Allegheny County to offer a CCAC/CBA
parallel program. |

The transfer credit guides with CCAC
permits students who complete the equivalent of the freshmen engineering
curriculum (ten specific courses) with a QPA of at least 2.8 to transfer into
the department of their choice. Students who have completed the equivalent of
the first year, but have less than a 2.8 may apply for transfer, but must be
accepted by the department. Students who meet the
grade requirement but not the course requirement, may apply to transfer into
the freshman engineering program. The transfer credit guides with the
remaining schools follow a 3/2 arrangement |

These transfer credit guides were
developed primarily to encourage students from the Associate Degree Programs
in Diet Technician to attend the baccalaureate degree programs in Dietetics
and Nutrition. There are also three options for CCAC students interested in
the Emergency Medicine Program:1) CCAC Parallel EM Program, 2) CCAC EM
Prerequisite Program, and 3) CCAC Paramedic Program. |

Course equivalencies have been
articulated for each institution. A transfer packet for each
institution provides the basic skills and general educational requirements to
enable students to plan their curriculum and achieve maximum transferability
of classes for admission to the B.S. in Information Science Program. |

There are two categories of transfer
students who apply to the University of Pittsburgh School of Nursing: the
R.N. applicant-a student who has completed his/her basic nursing education in
a hospital or associate degree program, and transfer students interested in
obtaining their basic nursing education. |

Course equivalencies based on previous
acceptability allow for ease of advising, though no formal articulation is in
place. |
