Core-to-Core General Transfer Agreement

Students who have successfully completed either an associate of arts or associate of science degree will be considered to have completed their entire general education program (core-to-core) with the exception of our U1/U2 requirement. Transfer students must complete either U1 or U2 here at Moravian University. This core-to core agreement does not apply to students who have completed either an associate of applied arts degree or an associate of applied science degree or who do not earn an associate's degree at all.

Moravian University has transfer partnerships and articulation agreements with Bucks County Community College, LCCC, Northampton Community College, and Raritan Valley Community College.

View our course-by-course transfer guides for a comprehensive listing of courses that can be transferred from Bucks, Morris, LCCC, Montgomery, NCC, Raritan Valley and Warren County Community Colleges.

Credit is granted for courses completed with a grade of C or better at accredited institutions. The courses must be the equivalent of courses taught at Moravian or be judged by the university to be consistent with Moravian’s curriculum. Moravian will accept a maximum of 80 credits which is equivalent to 20 course units.
