Frequently Asked Questions

How does my Associate of Arts (AA) fit in?
-
Graduates of a regionally-accredited community college or university who earned an Associate of Arts (AA) degree or Baccalaureate degree (in the case of a second-degree seeking student) should contact the JU Office of Admission for details about the transfer of college credit. In most cases, a regionally-accredited AA or Baccalaureate curriculum satisfies JU's general education, or core curriculum, requirements.
For the articulation agreement to be in effect, the AA must have been completed and awarded prior to the first day of classes for that student.
