the guidance of the advisors (indicated below) at both institutions to assure that all requirements are satisfied. Each
institution will determine the satisfaction of their individual program and degree requirements. SC4 courses indicated
with an * are required for EMU’s Nursing Program.
Students whose transcripts are endorsed as “MACRAO Satisfied” will only be required to satisfy three of EMU’s general
education requirements, noted on the articulation guide and listed below. These may be completed at the most
appropriate time for the student, whether before or after admission to EMU.
a) an approved course in Quantitative Reasoning: [at SC4: MAT 124, 126, 212, 216, 217 ] or [At EMU: MATH 110;
or if MATH 104 or its equivalent has been completed with a “C” or higher, MATH 105, 118, 120, 170, COSC 106;
PHIL 181, PLSC 210, or STS 224]
b) an approved course in Global Awareness or US Diversity: [ANT 170 at SC4] or [ANTH 135 at EMU]
c) an approved Learning Beyond the Classroom experience offered by EMU [any NURS 451 at EMU]
To use MACRAO, students must request that an official community college transcript, with “MACRAO Satisfied”
imprinted, be sent to EMU’s Admissions Office. Students who don’t have “MACRAO Satisfied” on their community
college transcript will be required to satisfy EMU’s general education requirements as listed in the Undergraduate
Catalog. The MACRAO stamp may be completed after admission to EMU, however, students should inform advisors
at EMU that they intend to complete MACRAO, or they may be advised to complete additional courses for the
general education program.
Only courses with a grade of “C” or better (2.0 on a 4.0 scale) will be accepted for transfer to EMU.
Under this agreement, EMU will waive the 60 hour rule and require that a minimum of 30 credit hours must be
completed at the four-year college level, with at least 30 credits hours in courses offered by EMU. A minimum of 124
credit hours, completed in-residence or accepted in transfer, is required for graduation.

admission to EMU may be accessed from the EMU Office of Admissions website. Students must submit transcripts
from all previously attended colleges. Students who speak English as a second language must submit a TOEFL or
MELAB score that meets EMU requirements.
The Application for Admission to the RN/BSN Option may be accessed from the School of Nursing website at

• Current unrestricted license to practice as a registered nurse,
• Minimum cumulative GPA of 2.5 (on a 4.0 scale),
• Minimum grade of 3.0 (on a 4.0 scale) in a college-level English Composition course,

evaluation of your application for admission. Copies of the articulation guide are available on EMU’s webpage at
