The University of Idaho has created transfer pathways to make the transfer process easier for students. Through these pathways, the University of Idaho has created an agreement with other institutions to show a potential pathway to earn a bachelor's degree by starting at your local community college and completing the degree at the University of Idaho. When using these pathways, please remember that this is just one route to completing a bachelor's degree. If you choose to follow a pathway, be sure to save a copy and work with your academic advisor at the University of Idaho. Following a transfer pathway allows you to work with your academic advisor to adhere to the catalog year and requirements listed on the transfer pathway.
All Associate Degree's require a minimum of 60 credits, some programs may require more credits.
