Georgia Military College Articulation agreement

This articulation agreement facilitates transfer of students who have graduated from Georgia Military College with an Associate in Arts or Associate in Science degree by articulation of the transfer at the junior year level with those exceptions as annotated for courses not currently included in the Columbus State University curriculum or as noted in section 2 of this agreement.

This articulation agreement also is established to provide promising students who do not fully meet the entrance requirements of CSU the opportunity to begin their education at GMC.  After the completion of the equivalent of a minimum of 24 semester hours (35 quarter hours) of college level work at GMC and the completion of 6 semester hours in transient status of courses at CSU, students may transfer directly to CSU as regularly admitted students provided they also meet the cumulative grade point average required for admission as a transfer student to their program/major at CSU.

1.      The following courses at Georgia Military College satisfy the indicated core areas at Columbus State University.  Students who transfer credit to GMC from another institution will have those courses evaluated for transfer to CSU on an individual basis.
