Blank Articulation Agreement - Excel

Articulation agreements provide a strategy for facilitating the transfer of credits between a high school and a post-secondary institution, or between two post-secondary institutions to define the specific courses that may be taken at one institution and will be accepted for credit at the second.

Notes on Articulation Agreements:

• Articulation agreements promote the conversation between high schools and post-secondary schools in order to identify common curricular objectives.
• Articulation agreements allow high school elective coursework to be accepted for credit within a specific college major at a specific institution.
• Enrolling in high school courses that have been defined by articulation agreements, gives students a head start on completing a post-secondary program of study.

Notes on Concurrent Enrollment:

• Concurrent enrollment courses are typically college courses taught on high school campuses.
• Concurrent enrollment credit courses are fully transferable to public colleges and universities in Utah and are generally transferable to other colleges and universities throughout the United States.
• Students who participate in concurrent enrollment are more likely to enter and persist in post-secondary education programs.
• Concurrent enrollment saves both time and money,promoting efficiency of learning (reduced repetition in grades 11-14), enhancing admission to and retention in college, and increasing the likelihood of timely graduation from college.
