Transfer credit for students entering NIU for the first time will be evaluated based on the NIU Equivalent and the IAI Code columns.    After students are enrolled at NIU (except for students reentering with an A.A. or A.S. degree and students participating in dual admissions agreements) future transfer credit will be based on the NIU Equivalent column only.


Courses appearing in multiple separate lines may articulate into any one of the NIU equivalents listed.  For course numbers with a wildcard (#), any course starting with the wildcard numbers will have the same equivalent, unless a specific equivalent is listed.
