OVERVIEW: Articulation Agreement between Northwest College and the University of Wyoming For Civil Engineering Transfer Students This articulation agreement is made and entered into by Northwest College, hereinafter referred to as NWC, and the University of Wyoming, hereinafter referred to as UW. By this agreement NWC and UW express a shared commitment to increasing opportunities for student access to and success in higher education. PURPOSE: This agreement provides students who have completed the Associate of Science degree with articulated coursework in engineering the opportunity to complete a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering degree at UW. Any NWC student who has earned an Associate of Science degree with coursework that adheres to the guidelines within this agreement is guaranteed that UW will accept designated major-related credits and that all general education credits will apply to the Bachelor of Science degree in a manner consistent with the treatment of native UW students and given junior status in the major. CONDITIONS OF TRANSFER: Section I: Admissions and Matriculation NWC students maintaining continuous enrollment under this agreement will be afforded the same treatment and protection as native UW College of Engineering and Applied Science students enrolled under a specific catalog. Criteria for acceptance into UW College of Engineering and Applied Science will be consistent with the criteria outlined in the institutional articulation agreement between NWC and UW. NWC, upon request of students, will provide verification of completed courses to UW through its Office of Registration and Records. Transfer students from NWC will have access to financial aid, scholarships, and student services on the same basis as native students. UW will apply the same academic progress and graduation standards to NWC transfer students as those applicable to native UW students. Section II: Program Plan While a course-by-course equivalence was used in the development of this plan, this agreement presumes that the general education core requirements at NWC meet general education requirements at UW.

OVERVIEW:

Articulation Agreement between Northwest College and the University of Wyoming

For Civil Engineering Transfer Students

This articulation agreement is made and entered into by Northwest College, hereinafter referred to as NWC, and the University of Wyoming, hereinafter referred to as UW. By this agreement NWC and UW express a shared commitment to increasing opportunities for student access to and success in higher education.

PURPOSE: This agreement provides students who have completed the Associate of Science degree with articulated coursework in engineering the opportunity to complete a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering degree at UW. Any NWC student who has earned an Associate of Science degree with coursework that adheres to the guidelines within this agreement is guaranteed that UW will accept designated major-related credits and that all general education credits will apply to the Bachelor of Science degree in a manner consistent with the treatment of native UW students and given junior status in the major.

CONDITIONS OF TRANSFER:

Section I : Admissions and Matriculation NWC students maintaining continuous enrollment under this agreement will be afforded the same treatment and protection as native UW College of Engineering and Applied Science students enrolled under a specific catalog.

Criteria for acceptance into UW College of Engineering and Applied Science will be consistent with the criteria outlined in the institutional articulation agreement between NWC and UW.

NWC, upon request of students, will provide verification of completed courses to UW through its Office of Registration and Records.

Transfer students from NWC will have access to financial aid, scholarships, and student services on the same basis as native students.

UW will apply the same academic progress and graduation standards to NWC transfer students as those applicable to native UW students.

Section II: Program Plan While a course-by-course equivalence was used in the development of this plan, this agreement presumes that the general education core requirements at NWC meet general education requirements at UW. Students falling under this program articulation agreement will be responsible for successfully completing the additional prescribed requirements. Exceptions to the equivalencies specified below may be approved by the student's joint advisors described in Section III.

Section III: Advising and Transcript Review NWC and UW acknowledge that the particular academic requirements of both institutions are best communicated to students by their own faculty and staff. Hence, NWC and UW agree that each student who declares his or her intention to transfer to UW upon completing the Associates of Science degree at NWC will be assigned one advisor from each institution. These two advisors will jointly recommend course selections for the student in order to provide the greatest opportunity for successful degree completion at both institutions. Joint advising will be performed cooperatively and on a semester-by-semester basis until the student completes the Associates of Science degree, at which point the UW advisor will continue with that responsibility on an individual basis with the student.

TERMS of AGREEMENT: This agreement is made and entered into in the academic year 2015-2016 and remains in force unless a new articulation agreement is signed by all parties. The agreement is subject to annual review to assure currency with the respective degree requirements, and may be amended at any time. Should either party desire to discontinue this agreement, advance notification of one year will be required.

SIGNATURES: Northwest College and University of Wyoming hereby enter into this program articulation agreement leading from the Associate of Science degree with articulated coursework in Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering by the affixing of signatures of the academic officers of both
