Transfer Credit
Coastline Community College Articulation Agreement
How to read this agreement:
Transferable courses are listed below by Core Curriculum area. In each area, a transferable course is listed one of two ways:
- A transfer course will appear in the list of courses paired with its direct USF equivalent.
- A transfer course with no direct equivalent at USF will display a placeholder course number of 1XX. These courses may be used to fulfill Core requirements where applicable.
- Students only need to complete one course to fulfill each individual Core requirement.
- If the transfer course does not meet a specific requirement, it may be used as elective credit.
- USF makes every attempt to maintain the following equivalencies to ensure that the information is current for prospective transfer students.
This agreement is a menu of course options for planning purposes; you do not need to fulfill each area to be eligible for transfer to USF.
Discuss your path with a USF transfer admission counselor who can help you plan your courses.
