GETTING READY FOR THE U
A GUIDE FOR TRANSFERRING TO THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH
FOR UTAH STATE UNIVERSITY/UTAH STATE UNIVERSITY EASTERN
STUDENTS
If well planned, your academic course work at Utah State University/Utah State University Eastern will be
a valuable contribution toward earning a bachelor's degree at the University of Utah. Many courses offered at
USU/USUE will fulfill requirements in the U's General Education program - the basics required of all University of
Utah students seeking a bachelor degree. You can even begin meeting requirements for some departmental majors
while still a student at USU/USUE.
The purpose of this guide is to inform you of the courses offered at USU/USUE that meet specific
requirements in various programs of study at the University of Utah. Preparing yourself now, while attending
USU/USUE, can save you both time and money. Other resources that will be useful to you during your course
planning include: Utah State University/Utah State University Eastern Academic Advising Center, the Utah State
University/Utah State University Eastern General Catalog and the University of Utah General Catalog.
How To Use This Guide
Many departments at the U have articulation agreements with USU/USUE. This means that the faculty at
the U has agreed with the faculty at USU/USUE that specific courses completed at USU/USUE will apply toward
certain majors at the U. Therefore, if you are a student at USU/USUE and are planning to transfer to the U, you will
be able to take USU/USUE courses that will directly transfer into your proposed major at the University of Utah. To
learn more about a particular program, you will find your intended major at the U listed alphabetically in the general
information table.
Before learning about your specific major, please review the following general information about the U.
This information includes important administrative procedures and also identifies Utah State University courses that
meet general graduation requirements at the U.
Applying To The U
You can apply online through the Office of Admissions website (www.sa.utah.edu/admiss). You may obtain an
application by calling, writing or visiting the University's Office of Admissions:
Office of Admissions
201 S 1460 E Rm 250S
Salt Lake City, UT 84112-9057
(801) 581-8761
The annual deadlines for admission are 1:
Fall Semester. . . . . April 1
Summer Session I. . . March 15
Spring Semester . . . . . . November 1
Summer Session II . . . March 15
(Financial aid, scholarship, and many departmental application deadlines may be earlier. Contact the
appropriate office for more information.)
An application for admission, a processing fee, and supporting credentials must be filed with the Office of
Admissions by the published deadlines. Applications received after deadlines are subject to the late handling fee.
Official transcripts from all colleges or universities attended must be submitted to the Office of Admissions in order
1
Subject to change without prior notice
for your application to be evaluated. Transcripts must be mailed directly to the University Office of Admissions
from the records office of all colleges or universities previously attended to be considered official.
Applicants transferring fewer than 30 semester hours or 45 quarter hours will also need to submit an
official copy of their high school transcript and ACT or SAT results. These students must meet the University's
requirements as outlined in the General Catalog for both freshmen and transfer applicants.
The U’s Admission Criteria For Transfer Students
Applicants with 30 semester hours or more of transferable work and a cumulative college-level GPA of
2.6 2 or higher are likely to be admitted to the U. Those with a cumulative GPA below 2.6 will likely be denied. In
addition, your last semester’s GPA must be above a 2.0. All transferable courses attempted and not withdrawn from
are figured into your GPA. The Credits and Admissions Committee will review additional information for applicants
requesting special consideration.
You will be notified by mail of your admission status within 2-6 weeks after your application and all
credentials have been received in our office. If you are denied admission, you will receive a letter with some
recommended alternatives. A process of appeal is available; contact the Office of Admissions for more information.
How Transfer Credit is Evaluated
Once you are admitted to the U, we will inform you of the total number of transfer credits accepted and
designate the courses accepted toward completion of General Education requirements on your Summary of Transfer
Credit. The summary will also notify you of your cumulative transfer GPA. Transfer courses are not computed into
the University of Utah’s GPA. Your University of Utah GPA will begin once you start taking classes at the U.
In state schools: The University of Utah will accept courses completed at accredited Utah colleges or
universities with a course number of at least 1000 for state institutions and will generally accept courses with a
course number of at least 100 for private schools (BYU, LDSBC, Westminster College) if you receive at least a Dgrade. Students who have an associate of arts or associate of science degree or have completed the general education
program at another Utah state-supported institution of higher education are considered to have satisfied the
University of Utah’s general education requirements.
Out-of-state schools: Transfer credit earned in residence at other accredited collegiate institutions is
normally accepted if the work is similar in nature to programs offered at the U, and if grades of D- or better have
been earned in the credited courses. Courses transferred from out-of-state schools are evaluated on the basis of
whether they are (a) transferable (can be used toward the 122 semester hours required to graduate) and (b)
equivalent to courses offered at the University of Utah and, thus, can be used to qualify for admission into a
selective major.
If you have attended schools not addressed in this guide and have questions regarding the transferability of
those courses, please call the Transfer Office od Admissions at (801) 581-7286. For questions regarding the
evaluations of AP, CLEP, and Challenge Credit, refer to the University of Utah’s General Catalog or contact the
Transfer Office of Admissions.
It is important to realize that admission to the University of Utah does not guarantee admission into your
intended major. Many departments require a separate application process and evaluate your course work for
additional requirements.

University of Utah Graduation Requirements That May Be Completed at USU/USUE
In addition to your major courses, the University of Utah has three types of graduation requirements. Students must
complete (1) General Education requirements, (2) University Bachelor’s Degree requirements, and (3) Elective
Credit.
1.
General Education: The U’s General Education program can be waived by completing the General
Education requirements at USU/USUE. This may be demonstrated by obtaining a letter of completion from
USU/USUE’s Registrar’s Office, which states that all of your General Education requirements have been
completed.
If you do not complete the General Education requirements at USU/USUE, your transfer courses will
be evaluated on a course-by-course basis for General Education credit. Those courses awarded General
Education credit will be identified on your Summary of Transfer Credit.
A basic understanding of the General Education program may assist you with your USU course planning.
In the General Education program every student must complete the Intellectual Explorations requirement,
the American Institutions requirement, the Quantitative Reasoning requirement, and the Writing
requirement.
a.
American Institutions Requirement: May be completed at USU/USUE by completing (with a D- or
better) ONE of the following areas of study:
ECON 1500
HIST 1700
HIST 2700 & 2710

four subject areas:
Fine Arts
Humanities
Physical and Life Sciences
Social Sciences
Students are required to complete two courses from each of the four subject areas. Courses for
these requirements must be completed with a minimum D- grade. Most courses taught at
USU/USUE for General Education credit will be accepted as fulfilling the foundation
requirements in one of the four areas. Foundation courses are identified on the Summary of
Transfer Credit as FF (Fine Arts Foundation), HF (Humanities Foundation), SF (Physical & Life
Sciences Foundation), and BF (Social and Behavioral Science Foundation)

There are a few majors at the U that require specific courses that could be double counted for general
education. With careful planning a student could include courses for the major.
2.
University Requirements: In addition to requirements fulfilled with an A.S. degree, the University also
requires all students to complete the following to receive a Bachelor’s degree (these requirements may be
part of the major departmental requirements):
a.
Upper-Divison Communication/Writing Requirement: Taking an approved upper-division
communication/writing course identified by the student’s major department may fulfill this
requirement. The course must be completed with a minimum grade of C- or credit, unless the
department requires a higher grade.
b.
Diversity Requirement: All undergraduate students graduating from the University of Utah will be
required to successfully complete one course satisfying the diversity requirement. In order to
fulfill the diversity requirement, the course must be at least three hours and have as its central
focus:
1.
2.

For further questions and course approval, please contact University College’s Academic
Advising Center at (801) 581-8146; or the Office of Undergraduate Studies at (801) 581-3811
c.
Math or Language Requirement: The math requirement is necessary for students expecting to earn
a Bachelor of Science degree. Students desiring a Bachelor of Arts degree must complete the
foreign language requirement. Refer to the information included on each major to find out which
degree is offered for your intended major at the U.



d.
Bachelor of Science degrees require completion of two upper-division quantitative
intensive courses, equal to six semester hours, from an approved list of courses. These
courses must be passed with a minimum D- grade or credit.
Bachelor of Arts degrees require students to complete course work equivalent to at least
fifth-quarter (202) or 4th semester (2020 level) competency in either foreign or sign
language. Language credit transferred to the U must have a minimum grade of C- or
credit.
Refer to appropriate department for BFA, BMus, BSW, and BUS requirements.
International Requirement: (For students entering the U starting Fall 2007): All undergraduate
students graduating from the University of Utah will be required to successfully complete one
course satisfying the international requirement. In order to fulfill the international requirement,
students must take an approved upper-division course that is at least three hours.
3. Elective Credits: As previously explained, any course from USU/USUE above a 1000 level with at
least a D- grade. Students graduating from the U must complete at least 122 credit hours (164 for
Pharmacy majors). All accepted USU/USUE credits will count toward this requirement. However,
within those 122 credit hours students are also required to complete at least 40 upper division credit
hours. Upper division courses at the U are numbered 3000 or higher.
Where You Can Go For Further Assistance
There are many important offices you will become acquainted with while attending the U. Several of these,
including University College and Career Services, will offer immediate benefits to you. Orientation and New
Student Programs Office holds Orientation programs every semester before classes begin. If you are admitted by
the application deadline, you will receive an invitation to attend one of these very informative programs. Advisors at
the Orientation programs will:
•
•
•
•
•
Outline the University wide graduation requirement, including the General Education program.
Discuss class selection and program planning.
Assist students that have not yet chosen a major.
Familiarize you with the campus, student support services, and the many opportunities for student
involvement.
Offer registration on the day you attend an orientation session for better course selection in your
first semester at the University of Utah.
Orientation may be one of the most important programs you will attend as a new University of Utah
student. You must attend orientation to receive priority registration. All new University of Utah students pay a
one-time matriculation fee. This $70 fee covers the cost of the new student orientation, AP/CLEP/IB credit
evaluations, writing placement exams, graduation evaluations, and registration with the Career Services Center.
The University’s Career Services includes a nationally recognized career library with resources for
extensive career exploration. If you have questions regarding the demand for graduates in your field, you will find
valuable information located in the career library.

Still Have Questions?
For clarification of information contained in this guide, please contact the Transfer Articulation Coordinator in
the University of Utah’s Office of Admissions at (801) 581-8761. You may also contact individual offices at the U
for specific questions.
The Getting Ready Guide is not an articulation guide. The Getting Ready Guide is created by the University of
Utah’s Office of Admissions and departments to show how courses may transfer from other schools to complete
major requirements. This guide is major specific. Courses that satisfy requirements for a particular major may not
clear requirements for a different major. If you are interested in viewing articulation agreements made between
schools, please visit the Utah System of Higher Education Transfer Guide.

ART
In addition to the first-year studio curriculum, the candidate completes the requirements in an individual area of
emphasis: art teaching, ceramics, graphic design, painting and drawing, photography/digital imaging, printmaking,
sculpture intermedia, or Cross 3D Focus: Ceramics & Sculpture.

Admission Criteria: Transfer students apply to the University through the Admissions Office. The
department does not require a separate admission process but does require a portfolio review for transfer
credit in the major. Previous art coursework may count towards required courses in First-Year Studio as
well as freshman- or sophomore-level classes in the intended emphasis area. Students must petition to have
art courses from another institution approved for the art major through a portfolio review. Faculty in the
desired emphasis area review samples of artwork in the portfolio for quality, so including the best work is
very important. No more than twelve examples should be submitted for each class in the petition. If you
request to waive part or all of the First-Year Studio sequence, your art work should demonstrate basic
principles, such as line, perspective, value, and color for the 2D classes. 3D works should exhibit strength
in composition through the use of visual elements. 3D works must show an attention to technique and
craftsmanship and demonstrate a reasonable proficiency in the handling of construction materials. Original
work is preferred, although slides, photos, or CD are accepted. 2D works derived from photographs do not
make a successful portfolio. 3D work should be submitted in slide, photo, or CD form only. A copy of
transcripts or a University of Utah summary of transfer credit must be submitted with the portfolio.
Students who do not petition for acceptance of transferred art courses begin with the First-Year Studio
program. Admittance into the Graphic Design is done once a year. Portfolios for Graphic Design are
reviewed in March for admission for the following Fall Semester. Contact the department for the dates of
each portfolio review.

Transferring Courses: Art major classes may be transferred to fulfill art major credit (see Admission
Criteria). Please call the department office for portfolio review dates and portfolio submission guidelines.

While attending USU/USUE, students may complete General Education requirements and courses
identified to fulfill the University requirements, including foreign language credits and/or other transferable
electives for the U. Students may have a letter of completion sent from USU/USUE, which states all
general education requirements have been completed.

Transfer students wishing consideration for a continuing student scholarship must have attended the
University for at least one semester to be eligible for the March portfolio review.

Students are strongly encouraged to meet with a University of Utah departmental advisor before entering
the U.

CIVIL ENGINEERING
Civil Engineering is considered to be the oldest engineering field. Throughout history, civil engineers have designed
and built facilities that have advanced civilization and provided for a higher standard of living. Civil engineering is
about community service, development, and improvement. IT involves the conception, planning, design, construction
and operation of facilities essential to modern life, ranging from transit systems to offshore structures to space
satellites. Civil engineers are problem solvers, meeting the challengers of pollution, traffic congestion, drinking
water and energy needs, urban redevelopment and community planning.

Admission Criteria: Once the pre-civil engineering requirements have been completed, you must apply
for intermediate status. Admission to intermediate status requires completion of at least 12 credit hours
from select courses with a minimum Engineering GPA of 2.5. You may apply for major status after
completing between 24-27 credit hours of selected courses, including some intermediate requirements, with
at least a 2.5 Engineering GPA.

Important Information: Courses required for this major may be repeated only once. If a course is
repeated, only the second grade received is used in the GPA calculation. If the student receives a grade of
W (withdrawal), I (incomplete), or V (audit), the course is considered taken.

Transferring Courses: The following courses may be taken at Utah State University/Utah State University
Eastern to satisfy pre-Civil Engineering and Intermediate Civil Engineering course requirements. There
are additional requirements not offered at USU.USUE that must be taken at the U.
PLEASE NOTE: The requirements listed as being satisfied in the following table are for this major
only. If you change majors these courses may not clear requirements for your new major.

ENVIRONMENTAL & SUSTAINABILITY STUDIES
The Environmental & Sustainability Studies Program at the University of Utah offers students an opportunity to
consider human-environment relationships across time and culture and at varied levels of environmental scale
(micro to global.) Students explore the relations between humans and nature from the perspectives of the natural
sciences, the social and health sciences, and the humanities and fine arts. The program provides an early
grounding in the natural and physical sciences so that students have a clear understanding of environmental
systems and both short and long term consequences of human-environment interactions.

Important Information: The Environmental & Sustainability Studies department reviews courses from
four-year institutions in Utah on a case-by-case basis, and decisions are based upon class descriptions of
course content, student grades, etc. Students simply complete the “course substitution” proposal form and
submit it for review. The review process usually takes 2-4 weeks.

Transferring Courses: No courses are currently listed as transferring from Utah State University/Utah
State University Eastern to satisfy specific requirements for this major.
The Environmental & Sustainability Studies Program works with transfer students from Utah State
University/Utah State University Eastern to accept classes relating to the environment that are not taught at

GENDER STUDIES
Before changing its name to Gender Studies in 2002, the Women’s Studies Program at the University of Utah had
existed since the mid-1970s and was thus one of the oldest in the U.S. The name change to “gender studies” is
intended to convey that the program offers more than the inclusion of women in the university curriculum; rather,
the program seeks to explore both gender difference and gender inequality throughout the entire human experience,
for both women and men. Gender Studies today is an interdisciplinary program devoted to the scholarly study of the
complex interaction of gender with race, class, sexual orientation, and nationality. In addition to its focus on the
history and achievements of women, gender scholarship has also inspired research and curriculum that address
men’s lives, masculinity, and the lives of people who identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgendered.

Admission Criteria: Students interested in majoring in Gender Studies must contact the program to obtain
an advising packet and application form. To be admitted, students must be interviewed by the Program
Director.

Transferring Courses: No courses are currently listed as transferring from Utah State University/Utah

INTERNATIONAL STUDIES
The International Studies program uses the wide-ranging resources at the University of Utah to prepare students to
live and work in the increasingly global world of the 21st century. The major is a combination of interdisciplinary
coursework, language study, and an international experience which makes it an ideal major for students with
multiple interests. Students will explore the international scope of different disciplines such as political science,
foreign language, history, and economics to prepare them to work in government, international business,
international development, along with many other professions.


LATIN AMERICAN STUDIES
The Latin American Studies major is designed to provide students with critical language and cultural skills that
serve as the foundation for careers in public service, business, humanitarian work, law, and health care, among
others, in Latin America and with Latino populations at home. Students are strongly encouraged to combine the
Latin American Studies major with a major (or minor) in another discipline, so that graduates can combine
discipline-specific skills with a high degree of language and cultural competency. Review the requirements on the
Latin American Studies’ website: http://latin-american-studies.utah.edu/.
Important information: Latin American Studies majors typically combine a Latin American Studies major with a
second major in the College of Humanities (e.g. Spanish or History or Communication) or the College of Social and
Behavioral Sciences (e.g. Sociology or Economics or Geography) or majors from other colleges. Students majoring
in Latin American Studies are required to take three years of a Latin American language and should begin their
study of a second language prior to transferring.

LINGUISTICS
Linguistics is an ideal major for today’s university student. It provides the intellectual satisfaction of learning how
human language works, while at the same time developing the analytical skills necessary to be highly competitive on
the job market. Linguists explore the structure and mechanics of language, the interaction of language and mind
and language and socio-culture factors, as well as what these things tell us about the human mind and the human
condition.
We offer two tracks within the Linguistics Major: General and TESOL. The General Linguistics track offers a strong
humanistic and scientific education in the nature of language. This track focuses on understanding and analyzing
language change, structure, and use. The TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) track allows
students to study language structure and acquisition and learn to apply this knowledge to teaching and learning
languages. This track prepares students to teach English both in the US and abroad.

MUSIC
The B.Mus. is the professional degree for music majors .Programs are offered in the areas of performance
(emphases in piano, organ, voice, strings, classical guitar, woodwinds, brasses, percussion, or harp); piano
pedagogy; music teaching; jazz performance or composition; music theory; composition; music history, and
literature. The B.A. program in music is available for those desiring a traditional liberal arts degree.
Admission Criteria: Transfer students must audition for the University of Utah School of Music. Before
transferring to the U, students should contact the School of Music Office for information regarding the
audition process. (www.music.utah.edu)
Important Information: Proficiency exams may be required for all students entering upper-division
courses and for keyboard skills. Students should realize that even if all of the University requirements are
completed while attending USU, it still may take up to four years to complete all of the required music
courses, depending upon the major emphasis in music.

Transferring Courses: Music courses will transfer to the University of Utah with a C grade or better. To
ensure student success in the music theory/musicianship sequence, a placement test will be administered
before transfer credits in music theory/musicianship are articulated.
One semester of conducting fundamentals for a minimum of two semester credit hours will satisfy the
conducting fundamentals requirement, even though it may be an upper-division course at the university.
All credit in private instruction with a C grade or better will transfer directly to the U. However, auditions
are required for skill-level placement. The University of Utah requires a minimum of four semesters of
private instruction to be taken at the U.
All credit in major conducted ensembles with a C or better will transfer directly to the U. The University of
Utah requires a minimum of four semesters of ensemble participation to be taken at the school irrespective
of a major’s area of emphasis, and reserves the right to evaluate the quality of the transferring institution
ensemble.
Music History, which is frequently a 3000 level course at universities, is complex and differs enough from
institution to institution that it has not been included as a transfer course. Students should check with the
institutions music department for specific major requirements.
The School of Music will accept up to ½ the emphasis requirement in large ensemble and private lesson.
Ex: Music Composition Emphasis
Ensemble Req. = 6 semesters
We will accept 3 semesters of transfer credit.

PHYSICS & ASTRONOMY
Physics majors are problem solvers. More than any other discipline, physics students learn to think creatively, to
show perseverance and to apply knowledge to new situations. For this reason, the skills developed as physics
majors prepare students for a wide variety of professions, both in and out of academia. Students with Bachelors’
degrees in physics go to graduate school in physics and related sciences, medicine, law, business, engineering, etc.
Students in the Department of Physics and Astronomy have the unique opportunity to engage in world class
research as undergraduates. Active research areas include theoretical and observational astronomy and
astrophysics, biophysics and medical physics, cosmic ray and particle physics, and experimental and theoretical
condensed matter physics. Many students are able to receive compensation for their research through research
grants or through the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program.

Important Information: Students seeking a degree in physics select a course of study: the physics track,
the applied physics track, the bio-medical physics track, or a physics teaching degree. Minors in physics,
astronomy, and physics teaching are also offered.
Students must meet with an advisor at least once a year for program approval and review of progress. It is
important that MATH 1210, 1220, 2210, and PHYS 2210, 2220, or 3210, 3220 are completed early,
because these classes are prerequisites for subsequent courses. Also, MATH 2250, 3150 and 3160 are
prerequisites for the upper level physics classes.
Students must complete Physics and all allied courses with a C- or better and maintain a GPA of 2.0 in their
major courses.

Transferring Courses: The following courses may be taken at Utah State University/Utah State
University Eastern to fulfill requirements for the Physics degree at the U. Other courses may be accepted
for credit, please see the departmental advisor for additional information. There are additional
requirements not offered at USU/USUE that must be taken at the U.
