Articulation Agreements
Articulation agreements are formal signed agreements between colleges and universities so students can be sure that what they take at Jackson College will meet the program requirements of where they transfer. Generally, public universities do not sign articulation agreements but use transfer guides and transfer equivalencies to help students know what to take. Sometimes articulation agreements require students to contact the university where they plan to transfer during their first year at community college. Even if the articulation agreement with your transfer institution does not require that you contact them, we strongly encourage you to contact them early in your college career.
