Course Equivalents

  • Penn State Abington Course Equivalents
    Please note:  Penn State (the whole University) is in the process of moving to a new LionPATH (student information system).  Part of this move is that Penn State is re-evaluating all transfer courses.  In this re-evaluation, some courses may not transfer as the exact equivalencies that they had in the past but they may now transfer as general credits (example, BIOL 122 now transfers as BIOL General Credits).   It will be up to each Penn State College to determine how the courses can fit into the Bachelor’s degree requirements for each student.  Penn State Abington will provide updated Transfer Guides for particular programs as course equivalencies are determined.
