University Transfer Information

The following is a list of equivalencies for Computer Science courses at Edmonds College and Computer Science Departments at selected universities in Washington State. Courses not listed here are usually, but not always, accepted by universities as non-specific Computer Science credits. This list is meant only as a tool for initial planning. It is not in any way a guarantee that any specific class will be accepted by any specific college or university. Students should always consult with the transfer institution on transferability of courses.
