SOUTH DAKOTA BOARD OF REGENTSSeptember 28th, 2017
FiledSeptember 28th, 2017BOR Policy 2:27 establishes requirements for institutions seeking to develop program level agreements for interested transfer students. The policy further establishes the distinction between AA, AS, and AAS degrees which are classified as transferable, terminal, or non- transferable degrees (respectively). However, the AAS is “transferable when a specific degree articulation agreement exists between a given A.A.S. degree and a specific Baccalaureate degree.” Agreements established with regionally accredited institutions must be developed in conjunction with the faculty and must meet all institutional guidelines. The agreements then monitored as a function of the institutional program review process. Once approved, the agreements apply only at Regental institutions with equivalent programs.
