To find your transfer guide, select your college and your intended NIU major from the drop-down menu below. The Course Equivalencies and Major Guides (CEMG) reflect the most current information available. Major requirements align with the current NIU catalog cycle, while course equivalencies are updated on an ongoing basis as NIU reviews and evaluates courses from partner institutions. Because of this, transfer course evaluations may change periodically to reflect the most recent decisions. It is highly recommended that you review our transfer credit policies, which can be found in the online catalog.
Note: If searching for a city college, please enter "City Colleges of Chicago" rather than the individual college name.
This guide is not a replacement for meeting with your academic advisor, and you are strongly encouraged to consult with your advising team for personalized course planning. Be sure that your contact information is current with us so we may provide updated information for the semester you're planning to start at NIU.

Below are the course equivalencies for all courses listed in the transfer guide. Keep in mind: just because a course is listed here doesn’t mean you have to take it. Check the full guide to see which courses are required. For example, if the guide says you can take MATH 211 or MATH 229, you’ll see both listed below — but you only need to take one of them.
