Articulation Agreements

Transfer Made Easy

Some students come to UIU with credits they have earned from other colleges. We understand the commitment it takes to earn credits and we want to help you maximize your transfer credits.  We also know that transferring to another school can be challenging. Because of this, we have worked with many institutions to identify how their coursework will transfer to UIU. This allows you to know exactly how your credits will be applied to your UIU degree. Transfer students may bring up to 90 total credits from a four-year college OR up to 78 credits from a two-year college.

Additionally, students transferring from one of our partner schools may qualify for scholarships! Check your eligibility here!

Please note that Upper Iowa reserves the right to change or update information about articulation agreements at any time. Complete course descriptions and degree requirements are available in the course catalog.
