College Comparison WorksheetCourse Equivalency Guides
The IWCC Transfer Course Equivalency Guides are designed to help advisors and students identify Iowa Western courses that are the equivalent to those of regional four-year institutions.
There are two ways that courses transfer from IWCC. The first is as a "direct equivalent" to a four year institution. This means that a course taken at Iowa Western matches exactly with a course from another institution.
The second way courses transfer is as "non-equivalent". When a course at IWCC does not match a particular course exactly, students may receive elective credits for that course.
It is important to remember that developmental courses typically do not transfer; for example, Basic Math, College Prep Reading, and Elements of Writing are considered developmental and therefore tend not to transfer. The rule of thumb is if the number starts with a 0 (Eng 013), it will not transfer.
NOTE: The four–year institution has the final say on how classes transfer and are applied to your major. You should be in contact with your institution to ensure transferability.
