TRANSFER FACTS
• Students must apply and be admitted to SAU for general admission. Students are advised to apply a year in advance of the term they wish to transfer. Apply to SAU online
• The student should send the SAU Admissions Office a transcript for each term completed after submitting their application.
• The student must have a minimum grade of "C" to be in "good standing" for admission purposes.
• CLEP and Advanced Placement credit are subject to review for credit at SAU on an individual basis. Send these scores at the time you request a transcript be sent to SAU.
• A student who earns an AA or AS degree from BHC will be admitted to SAU as a junior. In order for students to graduate from BHC in the Business or Accounting Transfer curriculums, they must complete MATH 132 and MATH 228. SAU does not require these courses.
• The student can achieve a certain degree of specialization by selecting one of the different majors listed: Accounting, Economics, Finance, General Business, Management and Organizations, Marketing, or International Business.
• For students transferring with 30 semester hours or fewer, it is strongly recommended that BHC coursework include MATH 112 or 131; ECON 221 or 222, all of which would serve as prerequisites for business courses at SAU.
• Students earning the AA degree from BHC should reference the AA/AS Degree Planning Worksheet for appropriate course selection.
• Students planning to transfer prior to completion of the AA/AS at BHC, should reference SAU general education requirements.
• A maximum of 64 community college credits will be applied toward the minimum of 120 credits required for SAU graduation.
SUGGESTED COURSES - Include the following courses within the AA/AS degree.

NOTES:
Students' assessment scores might indicate the necessity of prerequisite English, math or reading courses in addition to the courses suggested in this sequence
- Non-accounting majors should consult their BHC catalog for appropriate course selection.
- Grade of "C" or better required. In the AA/AS degree, MATH 112 will be counted as an elective; students should also select at least one math course from the general education core.
- Appropriate course selection may vary based on the specific major chosen at SAU. Contact 563-333-6270.
- SAU requires three years of the same foreign language in high school or two semesters through level 102 in college.
- Students are strongly encouraged to complete at least one Philosophy course prior to transferring to SAU. Students not earning the AA/AS degree may meet up to six hours of the twelve hour Philosophy/Theology requirement prior to transfer by completing one Philosophy course and HIST 222 at BHC. Students who earn the AA/AS degree at BHC will only need to complete 6 hours of Philosophy/Theology after transfer. An introductory philosophy course is recommended to meet a humanities requirement at BHC, as well as meet a prerequisite for an upper-level philosophy or theology course at SAU.
- ** ACCT 205 will not count toward 300 level requirements at SAU.
- BA 240 will not fulfill SAU writing intensive requirement.
This guide is not intended to be a contract with SAU. The information of this guide is subject to change; students are advised to contact SAU to keep informed of changes. Final responsibility for verifying all transfer information lies with the student. Using this guide in conjunction with the BHC Catalog, the student will use to fulfill degree requirements.

*BHC's non-western studies graduation requirement may be satisfied by choosing one non-western IAI Humanities, Fine Arts, or Social & Behavioral Sciences course. Consult a BHC advisor for course options.
+Either BIOL 251 or BIOL 201 satisfies the diversity requirement for the B.S. in Biology.
Chemistry Note:
SAU requires Organic Chemistry I for a B.S. in Biology. Biology majors are strongly advised to discuss their transfer and career goals with advisors and faculty at both institutions to meet the application requirements for graduate programs including medical schools. These advanced programs may also require Organic Chemistry II and/or Biochemistry. Organic Chemistry II is offered at SAU and BHC. If taking Organic Chemistry I and II, complete both courses at the same institution. SAU's Biochemistry is CHEM 319; BHC's CHEM 111 Principles of Organic Biochemistry transfers to SAU as a Chemistry Elective.
(FYI: The Biology B.A. degree at SAU does not require Organic Chemistry I; seek advising for an alternate course.)
TRANSFER FACTS
• Students wishing to enter the Computer Information Systems major at SAU are encouraged to complete the course recommendations below within the Associate in Arts or Associate in Science degree at Black Hawk College.

TRANSFER FACTS
- St. Ambrose University admits up to 36 qualified students into the DPT program each fall; however, 15 of these spots are filled by students given a conditional admittance to the DPT program as high school seniors meeting TRACK I requirements.
- TRACK II entry to the Doctor of Physical Therapy Program is available to qualified St. Ambrose students during the senior year. Students on this track are able to complete program requirements on a 3+2.5 plan of study. The first year of DPT courses is applied toward completion of the undergraduate degree. Admission to the program on this track requires a minimum 3.0/4.0 GPA, however a higher GPA is recommended due to the keen competition for admission.
- TRACK III entry is available to students holding a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university. Students on this track complete requirements on a 4+2.5 plan of study.
- Due to the number of required courses, it is not recommended that students attempt to complete the AA/AS degree at Black Hawk College and all DPT prerequisites. Students who wish to take courses at BHC in addition to DPT prerequisites prior to transfer to SAU should reference BHC AA/AS degree requirements or SAU general education requirements. It is also advisable to consult with an SAU advisor for course selection.
- All prerequisites must be completed with a grade of "C" or better. Any major is acceptable; however, the pre-professional course prerequisites must be completed. Many students have found that they are most efficiently able to complete program prerequisites in a Psychology, Biology or Exercise Science major.
- TRACKS II and III DPT program admission also requires: 50 hours of documented observation with licensed physical therapists in two or more physical therapy settings including inpatient and outpatient; submission of official results of the Graduate Record Exam; official transcripts from all colleges or universities attended; two references from individuals well acquainted with the applicant; and an on-site personal interview with PT faculty members.
- TRACKS II and III applications to the program are submitted online through the Physical Therapist Centralized Application Service (PTCAS)
- TRACKS II and III application deadlines are on the DPT Application and Admission page.
- The DPT is accredited by the American Physical Therapy Association.

This guide is intended to assist students who plan to transfer to St. Ambrose University and pursue a degree in Criminal Justice. Use this guide with an EICCD A.A. Graduation Worksheet to select your courses. Click here for additional information about this major
Note: This document was accurate on the date it was prepared but may not reflect subsequent changes by SAU or the colleges of EICCD. For this reason this document should be used as a guide only and should not replace consultation with your community college advisor or SAU advisor.
Transfer: Students who transfer to St. Ambrose with an A.A. or A.S. degree from a college of EICCD will be admitted to SAU with junior status.
Note: It is recommended that as you select courses for your associate's degree, general education coursework should include a philosophy course. SAU also has a Health/Physical Education graduation requirement which can be met by completing PEH:109 Personal Wellness. Students who do not complete an associate degree prior to transfer will have their courses reviewed and accepted on a course-by-course basis. Click here for Course Equivalencies.
SAU requires a minimum grade of C in English Composition II, speech and math courses.
Foreign Language: SAU's foreign language requirement can be met by 3 years of study of the same foreign language in high school or by demonstrating competency through the second semester of a foreign language at the college level (complete 2 semesters of the same foreign language). American Sign Language may fulfill this requirement.
