Academic Programs. The Penn State baccalaureate programs included in the terms of the agreement are detailed in Appendix A and may be updated by the parties without renewing the memo of agreement. Programs stated in Addendum A will articulate 60 credits of associate degree courses to be applied to degree requirements in a specific Penn State Commonwealth Campus baccalaureate major. Any exception to articulate fewer than 60 credits toward PSU degree requirements must be approved by academic leadership of the Penn Highlands Community College and Penn State Altoona. Program-to-program transfer guides outlining the specific course equivalencies and approved substitutions for each academic program are included in the agreement. The guides were developed in consultation with Penn Highlands Community College and Penn State disciplinary faculty and are included as Addendum X. Xxxxxx not specified in Addendum A, including those offered at other Penn State college and campuses are not covered by the terms of this agreement. Therefore, students admitted under this agreement who seek to enter a major at another Penn State college/campus, would be evaluated based on the advanced standing admissions criteria of that college and campus. Specific course transferability and equivalency, presented in Addendum B were determined by disciplinary faculty and are communicated through transfer course tables maintained by Penn State’s Undergraduate Admissions Office in the student information system. Penn Highlands Community College courses evaluated as equivalent to Penn State courses or approved as general credit within a discipline, with grades of C (2.0) or higher, will be added to the student’s Penn State academic transcript by the Undergraduate Admissions Office. Transferability of courses not specified in the program-to-program guides will be reviewed by the Undergraduate Admissions Office on a case-by-case basis. Syllabi are required to support all course evaluations. Courses evaluated as general requirements were reviewed by the Penn State faculty in the discipline of the course and in some cases, were applied as substitutions for specific degree requirements. The curriculum transfer guides, in effect at the time a student first enrolls at Penn Highlands Community College, will be honored by Penn State if the student completes an AA or AS degree program named in the agreement and successfully transfers to Penn State Altoona within four years of their first enrollment at Penn Highlands Commu...
