Comprehensive Articulation Agreement
NCCC |
The comprehensive articulation agreement
(CAA) enables North Carolina community college graduates of
two-year associate-in-arts and associate-in-science degree
programs to transfer to constituent institutions of the University
of North Carolina with junior status.
Community college graduates of associate-in-arts
and associate-in-science degree programs who have completed
the general education transfer core will be considered to
have fulfilled the institution-wide, lower division, liberal
studies requirements of Western Carolina University. Graduates
of these programs will normally receive 64 semester hours
of academic credit upon admission to the university. Credit
for students who transfer before completing the general education
core will be evaluated on a course-by-course basis. Courses
which do not originate at a North Carolina college and which
are not listed on the approved college transfer course lists
will be evaluated on a course-by-course basis.
| Transfer
of General Education Core Courses Non-Graduates |
The general education core transfer component, if completed
successfully by a student with a grade of "C" or
better in each course, is portable and transferable as a block
across the North Carolina Community College System and from
that system to Western Carolina University, whether or not
the the transferring student has earned the associate degree.
Upon admission to Western Carolina University, students who
have completed the general education core with the proper
distribution of hours but who have not completed the associate
degree will be considered to have fulfilled the institution-wide
liberal studies requirements. To be eligible for inclusion
in this policy, a student must have an overall GPA of 2.0
on a 4.0 scale at the time of transfer and a grade of "C"
or better on all general education core courses.
