Note 3: Students transferring with an Associate in Arts Degree or a completed Minnesota Transfer Curriculum (MnTC) will satisfy the MSU general education requirements.

Note 4: Students transferring with Associate in Science or Associate in Applied Science degrees and with less than a completed MnTC will have to complete additional general education requirements.

Note 5: Students transferring without a degree or a completed MnTC will have their already completed general education coursework applied to the MSU general education, but will have to complete the remainder of the MSU general education requirements.

Note 6: Some majors and minors at MSU require specific general education courses. Please review the MSU catalog to determine the appropriate general education requirements for your selected major.

Note 7: Courses noted as elective credit will not satisfy general education or major or minor requirements, but will transfer and count toward the total credits needed for graduation.

Note 8: "No credit" courses will not transfer.

Note 9: Courses do not have a direct equivalent course at MSU, but will be used in the MnTC goal noted in the right column.

Note 10: These courses are technical in nature and will be limited to 16 semester (24 quarter) hours of transfer credit.

Note 11: Science courses equated to MnTC Area 3A satisfy the lab science requirement. Courses equated to MnTC Area 3B meet the non-lab science requirement.

*MSU teaches the two semester introductory computer science sequence, COMS 211 & 212, using the JAVA language. Computer Science majors transferring from Fond du Lac, who have not had a JAVA programming course, will need to take a JAVA short course their first term at MSU. If CSCI 2011 at Fond du Lac is taught using JAVA, this requirement will have been met. Students transferring to MSU should provide the Computer Science Faculty a syllabus for review upon arrival at MSU.
