Note 1: This equivalency guide is for the 2006-2007 catalog of Minnesota State University, Mankato (MSU) and the 2006-2008 catalog of Rainy River Community College.
Note 2: This equivalency table is a general guide to transfer of coursework to MSU. It is recommended that students refer to a copy of the 2006-2007 MSU catalog for the specific program requirements. Our catalog is available online at http://www.mnsu.edu/dept/ugbull

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.
