The CONNECT Math Group is pleased to share the information it this document with you. We have collected data from our six institutions and created tables which provide valuable information,
including: course names and numbers, placement criteria, target audience, prerequisites, technology, text, learning outcomes, and topics for many of the courses we offer. This information is
provided so that viewers are able to make an educated decision concerning the potential transferability of these courses. The CONNECT Math group makes no claim with respect to the
transferability of these courses among CONNECT institutions or other higher education institutions, unless otherwise stated in the CONNECT Math Transfer Agreement. The final
decision as to the transferability of a course is made by the receiving transfer institution. We recommend students contact their college’s transfer office for more information.
