Articulation/Transfer Plans

Moving from the First Step to Finishing a Bachelor’s Degree

The terms articulation, direct transfer, and course equivalencies are used interchangeably within the TBR system and other private four-year institutions to communicate transfer issues. Walters State has addressed the need for specific definitions for terms involving transfer. Walters State defines the terms in the following ways:

TBR Community College Tennessee Transfer Pathway

 

Guarantee that your credits will transfer to a public university in Tennessee if you choose any one of 50 different majors offering transfer pathways.

Articulation Agreements

 

A specific program-by-program agreement between a community college and a university which the student signs during the first year. This agreement forms a contract between the student and the four-year institution. Walters State has published articulation agreements with ETSU and the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. In order for articulation to be completed, all courses must be finished, and students must graduate from WSCC. An Intent to Articulate form must be signed and submitted to the Office of Student Success Advising Center.
