Illinois Articulation Initiative (IAI)

John A. Logan College is a participant in the Illinois Articulation Initiative (IAI), a statewide agreement that allows transfer of the completed Illinois General Education Core Curriculum (GECC) between participating institutions in Illinois. Completion of the transferable General Education Core Curriculum (GECC) at any participating college or university in Illinois assures transferring students that lower division general education requirements for an associate or bachelor’s degree have been satisfied. This agreement is in effect for students who entered an associate- or baccalaureate-degree-granting institution in Illinois as first-time freshmen in the summer of 1998 (and thereafter).

IAI General Education Core Curriculum (GECC)

The minimum requirements established for the Illinois Transferable General Education Core Curriculum (GECC) are as follows:

• Communications
  3 courses (9 semester credits). The three courses should include a two-course (6 semester credits) sequence in writing and one course (3 semester credits) in oral communications. A grade of “C” or better is required in the two-course writing sequence.
• Mathematics
  1 course (3 to 5 semester credits).
• Physical and Life Sciences
  2 courses (7 or 8 semester credits). One course must be from the Physical Sciences, one must be from the Life Sciences, and one of these must be a laboratory course.
