Shoreline Community College Equivalency Guide

Please refer to the Equivalency Guide Manual for an explanation of abbreviations and definitions of terms.

The majority of courses on this list follow the Common Course Numbering (CCN) system. Common Courses taught at the Washington state community colleges have an ampersand (“&”) symbol appended to the course prefix. To avoid confusion between courses, pay careful attention to the ampersand as some courses that look similar are actually different courses (e.g., ENGL& 101 and ENGL 101) and may have very different UW equivalencies.
