Articulation’s Wild West: Developing Articulation Agreements Outside of ASSIST
Megan Lawrence, Articulation Officer, Heald College
Many CIAC member institutions rely upon ASSIST for the publication of their articulation
agreements. However, exclusion of independent institutions from ASSIST has created
articulation’s “wild west,” in which both public and private sector colleges develop their own
articulation formats, resulting in various degrees of effectiveness and clarity for students.
This session will include a sample of articulation agreements, a comparison to CIAC’s
articulation definitions, and a discussion of the elements important to an articulation
agreement.
Participants will leave the session with a self-developed template for
articulating with institutions outside ASSIST or ideas for improving their own templates.

Articulation Definitions, as published on the CIAC website
Articulation Best Practices – Definitions (rev. 3/5/10)
Three categories of articulation are used most often in California.
I. Articulation Agreement An agreement that courses or sequences of courses at one institution
will be accepted in fulfillment of curricular requirements at another institution. When developing
an articulation agreement the following factors should be considered:




An agreement can be either unilateral or bilateral. In a unilateral agreement, only one
institution agrees to accept courses from the other. In a bilateral agreement, both
institutions agree to accept courses from each other. The agreement should specify
whether it is unilateral or bilateral and if it is unilateral, which institution agrees to accept
courses from the other.
An articulation agreement should contain an expiration date, such as the catalog year(s)
on which it is based, or a clause indicating the conditions under which re-evaluation is
necessary (such as a change in curriculum). If there is no expiration date, it cannot be
assumed that the agreement is current and institutions should periodically verify the
currency of the agreement.
Once an agreement is formalized, it is implied that the parties to the agreement will keep
each other informed about curricular changes that affect the agreement and that they will
review and, if necessary, revise the agreement regularly.
Articulation agreements may be signed by both parties, indicating that the receiving
institution agrees to accept courses listed on the agreement in lieu of their own and that
students, counselors, and others at the sending institution can use the agreement with
confidence. An articulation agreement does not need signatures to be valid, however, as
CIAC Annual Conference 2015
CIAC p. 1
long as it was created with a clear understanding and commitment by all parties.
Articulation agreements between California public post-secondary institutions that are
posted on ASSIST are valid and are not signed.
II. Transfer Information This includes publications or other documentation about transfer
requirements, processes, or procedures that apply to all potential transfer students seeking
admission to a receiving institution. Examples include information about admission requirements,
application procedures, scholarships and financial aid, tuition discounts, and special transfer
programs as well as catalogs, campus viewbooks, outreach brochures, and other general
information resources. This information may be posted on or linked to the college website,
displayed in the Transfer Center, and/or distributed to the counselors. Transfer information is not
an “agreement” and is therefore not approved or signed by any college or district representative.
Transfer information may also be organized into transfer pathways, sometimes referred to as
Transfer Partnerships, Transfer Guides, or other similar descriptions that describe general
curricular admission requirements. They outline specific types of courses recommended before
transfer which may include requirements for general education and/or lower division major
preparation. Admission is not guaranteed if a student follows the recommended guide. Transfer
Guides may be posted on or linked to the college website, displayed in the Transfer Center,
and/or distributed to the counselors. Transfer Guides are recommended pathways designated by
the receiving institution and therefore do not require approval or a signature by any college or
district representative.
Finally, transfer information may also be formalized into Transfer Admission Guarantees (TAGs)
which detail specific criteria that will guarantee students admission to a receiving institution if
completed. They are written contracts whose terms are agreed to by the student. Such contracts
may then be submitted to the transfer institution for review and final approval. The terms of the
TAG may include criteria such as minimum units, minimum GPA, specific courses, and/or
timelines and deadlines for completion of general education and/or lower division major
preparation. While admission is reserved for the students, they are not bound to attend the
institution. TAG criteria, contract paperwork, and deadlines are usually coordinated by personnel
in the sending institution's Transfer Center. TAG criteria are determined by the transfer institution
and therefore do not require approval or a signature by any college or district representative. The
term "Transfer Admission Guarantee" is standard in the California public sector, and independent
institutions may adopt different terminology for the same process.
III. Memorandum Of Understanding (MOU) MOUs confirm agreements that students from the
sending institution will receive special admission consideration or other benefits such as tuition
discounts not offered to most other potential transfer students. MOUs may also obligate the
sending institution or district to provide institutional resources or other support not provided to
other institutional partners. Examples include the ability to use facilities at the sending institution
for student advising or a commitment by the sending institution to promote the receiving
institution. Since both the sending and receiving institutions make specific commitments, these
agreements are signed by representatives from both institutions.
The obligations of a MOU are often beyond the level of authority of the sending institution's
articulation officer and may require approval and/or a signature from a high-level administrator at
the sending institution.

General Education Transfer Credit Agreement 2014-2015 Catalog
This articulation agreement describes how courses taken at Heald College may meet Notre Dame de Namur University requirements for general
education. Please note: You do not need to complete all of these requirements before transferring to NDNU.

Policy for Awarding Transfer Credit. With the exception of remedial or vocational courses, NDNU accepts credit for courses completed with grade
“C” (2.0) or higher at any degree granting regionally accredited two or four year college or university. Courses from California Community Colleges
are generally accepted according to the published recommendations for transfer of courses to the California State University system.
Conversion of Quarter Units to Semester Units. Quarter units are based on 30 hours of instruction; semester units on 40 hours. NDNU is on the
semester system. 3 qtr units=2 sem units; 4 qtr units=2.67 sem units; 4.5 qtr units=3.0 sem units; 5 qtr units=3.33 sem units.

WORLD HISTORY. Transfer students (30 or more transferable units) may fulfill the History requirement by satisfying Section A and Section B History
requirements as described in the NDNU catalog. Note: History coursework taken by any student prior to matriculation at NDNU may be transferred in to
satisfy NDNU’s World History requirement, provided course content meets the criteria for Section A (World History) and/or Section B (General History)
requirements. After matriculation, only World History coursework may be transferred in by any student to satisfy this requirement. The only exception to the
World History requirement for transfer courses taken after matriculation is for courses taken at a school that does not offer World History (effective Fall 2012
catalog). Please speak with your transfer counselor for more information.
MODERN LANGUAGE/CULTURE AND LANGUAGE. Students who have completed the third-year level of one foreign language in high school with a grade
of C (2.0) or higher in each term are exempt from the foreign language requirement. All B.A. and B.F.A. students must successfully complete Level 2 or
higher, unless eligible for exemption. For majors leading to a B.S. degree, Culture and Language courses (usually taken at NDNU) may be substituted for
Modern Language.
