WHAT IS ARTICULATION?
Articulation is the process of evaluating courses to determine whether coursework completed at the high school or ROP meets the requirements
at a community college or post-secondary institution whether by course-to-course equivalency, credit-by-exam, advanced
placement or dual enrollment.
WHAT IS AN ARTICULATION AGREEMENT?
An articulation agreement is a formal, written and published document that describes which
coursework from the “sending” institution (HS or ROP) is accepted as comparable to or in lieu of
coursework at the “receiving” institution (community college/post-secondary institutions)
Old VS. New Process

CREDIT-BY-EXAMThrough the credit examination process, high
school/ROP students may receive college credit for some articulated courses. Credit by exam
means that a HS/ROP student has demonstrated proficiency in college-level studies by satisfactorily passing an exam
approved by a discipline faculty member of the receiving college. The student will receive credit
for the comparable community college course named in the articulation agreement.
