Course Equivalency Guide
El Paso Community College 2013-2014 Catalog
The MSU Admissions Office makes the initial determination of course transferability based on the transferring
institution’s accreditation and the comparability of coursework. This equivalency guide shows how courses from the twoyear college transfer to MSU and is updated annually. Course equivalents are subject to change without advance notice.
No more than 69 semester hours, including kinesiology activity courses, from a community college may be applied to a
degree program (excluding RN/BSN, BSRS, and BSRC) at Midwestern State University.
The applicant for admission by transfer with 18 or more non-developmental credit hours completed must have a
cumulative grade point average of 2.0 and be eligible to enroll at all institutions attended. Applicants with fewer than 18
non-developmental hours must have a cumulative grade point average of 2.0, be eligible to enroll at all institutions
attended and meet beginning freshmen admission requirements.

Evaluation Symbols: Courses on the equivalency listings are indicated with one of the following notations:
Course number – Indicates the equivalent Midwestern course offered at the freshman-sophomore level.
ELNA (Elective, Non-advanced) – Indicates that MSU does not offer an exact equivalent course but will accept it in
transfer as a non-advanced elective. An ELNA course may be approved as an equivalent course by the College Dean
under which such courses are offered.
*WE (Workforce Education) – Indicates that the courses usually will not be accepted in transfer except in a limited
number of specified degree programs. With the recommendation of the student’s College Dean, up to 12 hours of
approved WE credits may be applied to a degree program at MSU. Should the student change majors, the applicability of
the WE credit toward the new major will be subject to review by the College Dean of the student’s new major.
Articulation Agreements – If an articulation agreement exists between certain academic departments at Midwestern
State University and El Paso Community College, check with the academic dean on your college campus.
NT – Non-transferable credit.
Remedial Courses – Credit hours earned in remedial courses do not transfer. The equivalent MSU course will be shown
on the evaluation.
Health Science Programs – Courses in the health science programs are evaluated by the individual academic programs.
B.A.A.S. (Bachelor of Applied Arts & Sciences) Special Notes:
1. Six hours of work experience credit may be applied toward the B.A.A.S. degree only.
2. Workforce Education courses are not limited to 12 hours.
