The College of Southern Idaho has articulation agreements with all Idaho public colleges and universities and Treasure Valley Community College . This means that students who receive an Associate of Arts (AA) or an Associate of Science (AS) degree may transfer to one of the Idaho schools with junior level standing. Students who receive an Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree may transfer a maximum of 70 credits to BSU, ISU, LCSC, or U of I. Students will be considered transfer students if they transfer a minimum of 14 credits. CSI also has articulation agreements with Montana State University Northern, Utah State University , and Brigham Young University.
Students who complete requirements for the Associate of Arts or Associate of Science degree at an accredited institution in Idaho and Treasure Valley Community College in Oregon will be considered as having satisfied the lower division general education core requirements and shall be granted junior level standing upon transfer to a four-year public institution in Idaho and will not be required to complete additional courses to fulfill the core at the institution to which you transfer.
CSI accepts transfer from other accredited postsecondary institutions. However, each student's transcript is evaluated on an individual basis. Conversely, courses taken at CSI should transfer to other two year and four year colleges and universities.
Transfer students who have completed the general education core courses from any accredited institution in Idaho but have not received a degree will not be required to courses fulfill the CSI core. However, these students must provide official certification of completion of the general education core from the transferring institution to the College of Southern Idaho.
This policy provides for the fulfillment of all general education lower-division core requirements only. It is not intended to meet specific course requirements of specific majors; e.g., engineering, pharmacy, business, etc. Students who plan to transfer to unique or professional majors should consult with their advisers and make early contact with a representative from the institution to which they intend to transfer.
Transfer students who have not completed the Associate degree or the general education core courses will not come under the provision of this articulation agreement. A maximum total of 70 lower-division credits will normally be accepted for transfer from accredited Idaho community or colleges to Idaho four year institutions.
Students transferring to other institutions should consult the catalog of that institution to see which courses will be required to fulfill their general education core requirements and departmental (major) requirements. Any course with a number at the zero level is considered below a college freshman level and will not be accepted for transfer credit.
