Postsecondary Articulation

Articulation ensures that students receive credit for comparable coursework without unnecessary repetition when transferring from one institution to another.

Florida has developed a seamless articulation system to facilitate efficient and effective progression and transfer of students between and among public postsecondary institutions. - Florida Postsecondary Articulation Manual (PDF)

Florida guarantees transfer of postsecondary credit through a number of mechanisms, including:

• Statewide Articulation Agreement (2+2)
• Associate of Science to Bachelor of Science Degree Articulation (AS to BS) (PDF)
• Career and Technical Certificate to Associate of Applied Science/Associate of Science Degree Articulation (CTC/PSAV to AAS/AS)
• Applied Technology Diploma to Associate of Applied Science/Associate of Science Degree Articulation (ATD to AAS/AS) (PDF)
• Industry Certification to AAS/AS
• Statewide Course Numbering System

The Division of Florida Colleges also partners with private colleges and universities through articulation agreements to expand student access to education opportunities.
