University of North Dakota Grand Forks

THE NORTH DAKOTA UNIVERSITY SYSTEM

TRANSFER AGREEMENT

The North Dakota University System (NDUS) General Education Requirement (GERTA) Transfer Agreement was developed to assist students who transfer within the NDUS. If you have completed your general education coursework at a NDUS institution with at least 36 credits of general education courses and transfer to another NDUS institution, normally your general education requirement will have been met. If you have not completed your generals before transferring, most courses will be acceptable as generals at another NDUS school; however, the courses may be redistributed in general areas.

UND coursework generally acceptable at other NDUS schools as general education courses are designated on the list that follows (e.g. ND:ENGL). Please direct questions about the NDUS Transfer Agreement to the UND Registrar’s Office or the Registrar at another NDUS institution.

UNIVERSITY GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS

A minimum of 125 semester hours of credit is required for a baccalaureate degree. Transfer students are required to complete a minimum of 60 credits at four-year institutions. The last 30 credits must be UND institutional credit. Institutional credit is academic credit awarded by the university. The following pages describe the requirements which must be met by all students seeking the baccalaureate degree. These include the General Education requirements in (I) Communication, (II) Social Sciences, (III) Arts and Humanities, and (IV) Mathematics, Science and Technology, as well as regulations concerning majors, minors, grade point average, upper division courses, and residence. A minimum of three (3) credits of the General Education Requirements must meet the World Cultures designation. Students cannot fulfill the world cultures requirement by taking a CLEP or Foreign Language Placement and credit test.

The philosophy guiding the General Education portion of the University’s graduation requirements (I through IV) is explained in the immediately preceding section of the catalog. (Note: engineering students should pay special attention to General Education requirements for engineering students in the School of Engineering and Mines section. The General Education requirements may be satisfied by:

(1) Successful completion of classwork acceptable for that area, as specified below, or

(2) Achievement of the minimum score required for credit in College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) subject examinations.
