Articulation Agreements with Community Colleges

The Undergraduate Studies has articulation agreements with Sinclair Community College and Clark State Community College whereby all credits from an associates degree will be accepted, assuming the credits meet the guidelines for transfer credit as stated below.

Students with associates degrees from other institutions may apply up to 90 quarter credits (or the equivalent) toward a degree in The Weekend College.

Transfer Credit

All Undergraduate Studies students transfer credits into the program; therefore, the following applies to all:

• The Undergraduate Studies uses a quarter-hour credit system. Transfer credit is granted on a 1:1 ratio for other schools on a quarter system if a grade of "C" or better (or the equivalent) was earned. The conventional formula for converting semester to quarter credits is followed: each semester hour transfers as 1.5 quarter hours.*
• Of the 180 quarter credits required for graduation, at least 68 quarter credits must be completed in The Undergraduate Studies.
• A maximum of 112 approved transfer credits may be applied to the Antioch degree. Of the 112, only 90 quarter credits may be lower-division (usually 100 or 200 level courses). These must be from regionally accredited institutions, except as explained below.
• Because each major has a specific credit requirement, the number of credits required for graduation may occasionally exceed 180, if the student’s transfer credits approach the maximum and if the major requires more than 68 credits.
• Approved upper division credits may be accepted in transfer and applied toward the degree as long as the total number of transfer credits does not exceed 112.

Credits can be transferred from a variety of sources: another university or college; prior experiential learning; and examinations and other sources. Under certain circumstances, we also allow non-degree students to participate in our courses.
