How does an AA degree from Eastern Iowa Community Colleges transfer to the University of Iowa?
An Associate in Arts degree will fulfill all of the General Education Program requirements
in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, the College of Education, Tippie College
of Business, and University College at the University of Iowa with the exception of
the respective World Language requirement for each UI college and the Diversity and
Inclusion requirement for the College of Liberal Arts and Science. The World Language
requirement can be met through high school and/or college coursework in a foreign
language. Contact Academic Advising at your community college for more information
about this.
How does an AS degree from Eastern Iowa Community Colleges transfer to the University of Iowa?
The Associate in Science Degree may be a better choice when a student is pursuing
a bachelor's degree that requires more math and science courses. The AS degree transfers
on a course-by-course basis. This means that the University of Iowa will consider
each course individually to identify the general education requirements that have
been satisfied. Students pursuing an AS degree therefore need to know exactly how
each course will transfer, and how each course will fulfill the general education
requirements of their intended major at the University of Iowa. Academic Advising
at your community college can assist you with this.
