Articulation Agreements are generally used to formalize transfer of student from diploma, certificate, associate of arts (AA), associate of applied science (AAS), or associate of science (AS) programs into baccalaureate programs. Instructions: Departments wishing to develop an articulation agreement should: Notify and work with the Transfer Specialist in Admissions (x1822) Receive answers to questions about which elements of section 2 of the template apply to your situation. Verify course equivalencies for any prerequisite or support courses to be included in the articulation agreement. Notify and work with their Dean Notify and work with Academic Affairs (x1333) For approval and tracking of Articulation Agreements. The language for all of Section 2: Transfer Guidelines and Policies, needs to remain as it appears in the template. Add only the name of the institution with which the agreement is being made. MSU transfer course equivalency guides are updated by the Admissions Office transfer specialist on a semi-annual basis. Be sure to check the website at  HYPERLINK http://www.mnsu.edu/dept/admiss/transfer/index.htm http://www.mnsu.edu/dept/admiss/transfer/index.htm This guide will serve as the foundation for completion of Section 3.1 Articulated Programs. It lists courses transferring for general education credits and is considered equivalent to specific MSU courses. Consultation and Review Before Signing Consult with the MSU transfer specialist and Academic Affairs prior to preparation of the articulation agreement. The initial articulation agreement shall be reviewed by the MSU transfer specialist, Academic Affairs, and Minnesota State Universitys legal information specialist prior to securing signatures from participating institutions. After the agreement has been signed, copies will be provided to the legal specialist, the Registrar, and the Admissions Office through the Office of Academic Affairs. If the Articulation agreement includes joint enrollment, a copy will also be provided to the Financial Aid Office. Periodic Review of Existing Agreement The Office of Academic Affairs will develop and maintain a database of existing articulation agreements, and will send reminders to department chairs two months prior to the time for biennial review of existing articulation agreements.
