Do Graphic Design courses transfer to 4-year schools?
Yes, many Graphic Design courses will transfer. How courses transfer depends on the institution’s particular policies. Some of our courses transfer as general electives to Illinois state schools. Graphic Design courses that have Illinois Articulation Initiative (IAI) approval transfer as is (ART 110, 115, 250, and sometimes 259 and 260). Private schools require a portfolio. Many of our students transfer to Columbia College without any problems. The University of Illinois will accept all of our credits. U of I does, however, require transfer students to complete 3 years of coursework at the U of I campus. For specific information about transferability, please contact Berney Krule, the department chairperson.
