Fall 2015 Transfer Center Western Illinois University 1 University Circle 103 Sherman Hall Macomb, IL 61455 (309) 298-3120 transfer@wiu.edu First Stop Center Black Hawk College 6600 34th Avenue Moline, IL 61265 (309) 796-5000 Accountancy The 2+2 is a four-year plan that leads to a Bachelor of Business (B.B.) degree in Accountancy at WIU. Students will fill out applications for both schools, and consult the advisors and the catalogs for both schools for specifics. This completion guide is designed to ensure graduation in four years by taking courses at both BHC and WIU. This guide assumes students have met all course prerequisites required by BHC and admissions requirements for WIU. Upon completion of the first two years requirements at BHC, students will receive an Associate of Arts (A.A.) degree. Students will be required to complete business core and major course requirements at WIU, and upon completion of the final two years curriculum requirements students will receive the B.B. degree with a major in Accountancy. In general, a minimum of 64 semester hours (s.h.) will be taken at BHC at BHC rates and 60 s.h. from WIU at WIU rates. Under this agreement, acceptance as a declared business major requires the completion of a minimum of 60 s.h. with a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.50. The student must have also completed ACCT 201 and 202, ECON 231 and 232, MATH 137, and STAT 171. Transfer students not eligible to declare will be limited to 29 hours of business coursework as noted (Note 9.) below until these requirements have been met. Enrollment in a Pre-Business Program does not guarantee acceptance into one of the major areas as a candidate for the Bachelor of Business degree. 1st Year, First Semester Notes 1 2 3 3,4 SH 3 3 3 3-4 3 Semester Hours 15-16 WIU Equivalents ENG 180 ELECTIVE HUMANITIES OR FINE ARTS SCIENCE CS 101 SH 3 4 3-4 3 4 Semester Hours 17-18 WIU Equivalents FINE ARTS MATH 137 SCIENCE ENG 280 ACCT 201 BHC Courses ENG 101 ELECTIVE IAI HUMANITIES OR FINE ARTS IAI PHYSICAL SCIENCE CS 100 1st Year, Second Semester Notes 3 5 3,4 1 BHC Courses IAI FINE ARTS MATH 132 IAI LIFE SCIENCE ENG 102 ACCT 101 and ACCT 103(lab) 2nd Year, First Semester Notes BHC Courses ECON 221 MATH 108 OR 228 3 ACCT 102 and ACCT 104(lab) ECON 270 6 SPEC 101 SH 3 3 4 3 3 Semester Hours 16 WIU Equivalents ECON 231 STAT 171 ACCT 202 ECON 170 COMM 241 Both community college and university requirements are subject to change.
