General education courses no longer need to be individually evaluated to determine transferability and core equivalency. With the Cobber Completion Plan, students who intend to complete either an A.A. degree or the MnTC before coming to Concordia know exactly how their credits will meet Concordia’s curriculum guidelines.

Students interested in continuing their education at Concordia will:

• Enjoy a smooth transfer experience
• Have a majority of Concordia’s Core Curriculum with their completed general education requirements
• Dive into their major right away
• Get time to explore other interests at Concordia

Students who have previously completed an Associate of Arts (A.A.) degree from a regionally accredited institution or who have completed the Minnesota Transfer Curriculum (MnTC) prior to enrolling at Concordia will be waived of completing Core Curriculum requirements at Concordia (or have them fulfilled with an equivalent transfer course), with the exception of:

• World Language — One course at the second-semester level or higher
• Religion 200 — Christianity and Religious Diversity

First-year students who complete the MnTC through postsecondary enrollment or dual credit options and plan to enroll at Concordia once earning their high school diploma will also be required to take FYS 110 and WELL 110/111 during their first year at Å·ÃÀÊÓƵ.

All transfer courses must individually meet the , including a standard letter grade of C- or better, to transfer and count toward the overall credits needed for graduation.
