How to Use the Course Equivalency Database

When choosing a study abroad program, one of the most important considerations is the academic aspect: what do you hope to learn, and how will you use the credits you earn? Credits earned abroad can be used to fulfill your degree requirements for majors/minors, baccalaureate core, upper-division elective credit, and/or general electives.

As you work with your academic advisor to plan your course selection for your study abroad program, you can reference this database, which provides information about how specific courses have been articulated at OSU in prior terms.

Important Considerations for Advisors and Students

OSU GO cannot guarantee that the courses listed in this database will be offered every term for the institutions listed.

OSU GO works with faculty to evaluate courses for equivalency and articulation only. Academic advisors determine how courses are applied to a student’s degree plan, and which requirements may be met by specific coursework. OSU GO encourages and expects advisors to use course overrides when applying study abroad coursework to degree requirements. 

If an advisor evaluates the syllabus for a course not currently listed in the Course Equivalency Database and determines a course equivalency or articulation, this information should be recorded in the Notes section of the student's MyDegrees for future reference.

The Course Equivalency Database is not an exhaustive list of the courses that are available at our partner institutions, but a record of the courses that have been taken and how they were articulated at OSU.

Questions regarding the articulation of study abroad coursework should be directed to [email protected].

This database is updated quarterly.
