IAI General Education Core Curriculum Credential

Illinois Valley Community College has agreements with several state and private universities to ensure ease to transfer of credits. Guidelines for completing the first two years of a college major along with listings of transfer course equivalencies are available in the Counseling Center. Also, information on course equivalencies is available at the following Web site: https://www.ivcc.edu/transferservices.

Most students who transfer complete an Associate of Arts or Associate of Science Degree. This degree ensures the transfer of courses to a college or university that participates in the statewide General Education Core Curriculum Credential (GECC). Upon transfer, students with the degree have met lower level general education requirements and attain junior class status. Since some college majors require certain general education courses, students should always consult with an IVCC counselor. Currently 110 Illinois college and universities are GECC/IAI participants. The Web site for GECC/IAI is: http://www.itransfer.org/. The Associate of Arts (AA) and Associate Science (AS) are degrees that incorporate the General Education Core Curriculum (GECC). Students transferring without the AA or AS degree, but desire to transfer with the completion of the GECC are to meet the requirements as listed below. GECC will be noted on transcripts that meet the requirements.
