Illinois Articulation Initiative

The Illinois Articulation Initiative (IAI) was implemented to ensure seamless transfer for students transferring from one Illinois institution to another. It aids students whether they take the traditional path from an associate to a baccalaureate degree-granting college or university or from one community college to another. It also assists students transferring from one baccalaureate institution to another or from a baccalaureate institution to an associate degree-granting institution.

The General Education Core Curriculum is transferable to all Illinois institutions. Students benefit from agreement on a basic curriculum accepted by all institutions as a way for students, particularly undecided students, to begin their undergraduate experience.

For a list of IAI approved courses that meet degree requirements, see General Education Core Curriculum section. For codes assigned by the IAI for the General Education Core Curriculum and for majors, see Course Descriptions section.
