Transfer Course Equivalencies

The following is a list of current course equivalents between Iowa Western Community College and University of Nebraska–Lincoln; credit at UNL is stated in semester hours. If a specific UNL course equivalent has not been identified, other notations are used.

  • GNCR; course transfers as UNL general hours
  • SUBJ; course transfers as subject area hours (e.g., ENGLXXX, MATHXXX) not assigned to a specific course
  • NDAP; excess transfer course hours which are included in the equivalency and generally not degree-applicable
  • VCRD; vocational/skill development course: limited application to a UNL degree
  • NOCR; non-transferrable international course

Contact your UNL College to determine whether a course will be applicable to your intended major. While every effort is made to keep this list up to date, courses may be added or deleted at any time. Courses not listed may also be transferable and degree applicable. Equivalencies are date-specific and dependent upon when the course was taken. Equivalencies no longer in effect are not included in the list, but will be included in UNL's evaluation of transfer credit if taken during the period the equivalency was in effect. In some cases, two or more transfer courses may be needed to achieve the equivalent of a UNL course. For an official evaluation of transfer credits, students are encouraged to apply for admission to UNL, and submit complete high school and post-secondary transcripts. Begin your search for courses by selecting one of Iowa Western Community College's subject abbreviations:

*ACE is UNL’s 30-hour general education program comprised of 10 student learning outcomes (http://www.unl.edu/ous/ace/). Transfer courses may fulfill the ACE outcome listed. For information about the structure of ACE go to http://www.unl.edu/ous/ace/PDFs/ace2_StrucCrit.pdf.
