This agreement between Kirkwood Community College and Northwest Missouri State University provides students who have earned an AAS in Administrative Assistant degree the opportunity to complete a BS in Office Information Systems at Northwest. Any Kirkwood student who has earned an AAS in Administrative Assistant degree is guaranteed that Northwest will accept designated freshman and sophomore business administration credit hours, general education credits required for the AAS degree, plus any freshman and sophomore general education hours required by Northwest beyond the AAS degree. Northwest will apply such credit hours to the BS in Office Information Systems degree in a manner consistent with the treatment of all Northwest students.
A maximum of 84 credit hours will be accepted by Northwest from Kirkwood to be applied to the BS in Office Information Systems degree. Courses that are developmental (less than 100 level courses) are not transferable toward a baccalaureate degree. Only academic courses with passing letter grades (A, B, C, D) will be accepted for graduation requirements; courses with grades of "F" are not transferable. For information about credits earned through AP, IB, CLEP and dual enrollment programs, please contact the Northwest Admissions office.

must:
1. Receive a “C” or better for each required course taken
