Oakton College Transfer Guide

{title}

How to Use This Guide

  1. Select the appropriate subject below to expand the list. Identify the course code and course name of your Oakton course (Ex: Oakton course code is BIO 101, Oakton Course Title is Introduction to Life Sciences (L1 900L)).
  2. In the same row, identify the SPS Course Code and SPS Course Title.
  3. Please note that some SPS course equivalents are listed as "1xx" or "2xx." This indicates that Northwestern does not have a direct equivalent course, however, the course will transfer in as a general 100 level or 200 level course (Ex: Oakton course code BIO 101 transfers in as Biol_Sci 1xx i.e. a general 100 level Biological Sciences course at Northwestern).

Important Information

  • Ensure that each academic year you are working closely with your Academic Adviser at Oakton College and your Enrollment Adviser at Northwestern University School of Professional Studies during the course selection process.
  • Undergraduate degree candidates may satisfy up to one-half of their graduation requirements with coursework completed at other institutions.
  •  A minimum C grade is needed for courses to transfer and it's suggested you maintain a cumulative GPA of 3.3 or higher.

Note: This Northwestern SPS transfer guide is for the exclusive use of Oakton College advisers and students for the 2023-2024 academic year (September 2023-August 2024) and is subject to changes in future academic years.

� .

Please note: This guide is not a replacement for academic advising, it's recommended that students work closely with their Oakton Academic Adviser and Northwestern SPS Enrollment Adviser in selecting courses.
