UNIVERSITY OF PUGET SOUND TRANSFER
AGREEMENT
This guide is a reference to assist students at South
Puget Sound Community College in their preparation for
transfer to the University of Puget Sound. It contains
general transfer credit information and lists South Puget
Sound Community College courses that are transferable
as University Core requirements, 100-200 level major
requirements, or electives.
Community college courses that are similar to Puget
Sound courses numbered at the 100 or 200 level are
generally transferable. However, as transfer evaluations
are done in the context of each student’s academic
program, it is possible for an evaluation to include
courses not listed in this guide as well as to exclude
courses that are listed.
Therefore, students are
encouraged to seek the advice of the Puget Sound Office
of Admission (253-879-3211 or 800-396-7191) in
selecting transfer courses, especially those students with
specific plans. A maximum of 96 quarter credits may be
transferred.
Community college students who wish to complete an
associate degree prior to transferring are encouraged to
do so. However, the University evaluates all transfer
credit on a course-by-course basis and an associate
degree itself does not provide any direct benefit.
Students should use the course listings in conjunction
with the South Puget Sound Community College 20052007 Catalog and the University of Puget Sound Bulletin
2005-2006. Due to the lag-time between the publication
of the Bulletin and the publication of this guide, this guide
is effective for the 2006 calendar year only and will be
honored until 2008.
This guide has two lists, one for courses that transfer as
University Core requirements and one for transferable
courses in general. Note any courses that must be taken
in combination in order to transfer. If the combination is
not completed, separate courses may not transfer.
Students are therefore advised to complete a sequence
of courses, rather than just one or two quarters. (For
example, students studying calculus should complete
COURSE EQUIVALENCIES
Math 123, 124, and 125 rather than just Math 123 and
124).
The University Core curriculum includes 8 requirements
plus a language requirement.
Sophomore transfer
students may complete 4 Core courses and the language
requirement with transfer credit while junior transfer
students may complete 5 Core courses and the language
requirement with transfer credit.
All transfer credit used in a major or minor program is
subject to individual departmental review and approval.
Academic departments may require a transfer student to
complete an interview or examination before being
placed into a program of study. Based on a student’s
placement, transfer credit may be adjusted and a student
required to complete appropriate courses in residence.
Again, students are encouraged to contact the Office of
Admission (253-879-3211 or 800-396-7191) for
assistance in planning their transfer to Puget Sound.
NOTE: These listings only apply to regular course
offerings completed by regular college students.
Courses offered in other formats, such as
programmed-learning,
challenge
examination,
distance-learning, on-line, telecourses, or extension
programs may not be transferable. Additionally,
college credit earned by a student prior to high
school graduation is subject to special criteria and
reviewed for transfer credit on a case-by-case basis
using both the high school and college transcripts.
Students should contact the Admission Evaluator in the
Office of the Registrar (253-879-3219) for specific
information.
Similarly, all Contracted, Cooperative, Cross Cultural,
Directed, Field, Honors, Independent, Seminar, Special,
Travel Studies, and other courses with variable content
are evaluated individually. Students completing such
courses may submit a syllabus or abstract to the
Admission Evaluator for review.
Because curriculum revisions may occur during the year,
all announcements are subject to change without notice.
Additionally, this agreement is not to be regarded as
having created a binding contract between the University
and any student or community college.
