It also identifies some of the more common majors students transfer into and suggests courses students may take at WITCC for the most efficient transfer to Morningside College. Admission Requirements Transfer students must: 1) Complete an application for admission (online at www.morningside.edu or a paper version). 2) Submit official grade transcript from high school (or evidence of GED). 3) Submit official grade transcripts from ALL colleges attended. Transfer students who have earned at least 24 transferable semester hours with a 2.25 or better transfer GPA meet the academic standards for automatic admission. Transfer students with less than 24 transferable semester hours must defer to the admission requirements for high school seniors and firstyear students. Transfer of Credit A maximum of 62 semester hours from regionally accredited two-year community or junior colleges may be transferred to Morningside College, of which no more than 16 semester hours of technical/vocational courses will be accepted toward a baccalaureate degree. Exception: Students enrolled in the Degree Completion Program for Registered Nurses may transfer a maximum of 94 credits to Morningside College from two-year community or junior colleges. A maximum of 94 semester hours may be transferred from regionally accredited four-year colleges or universities, or from a combination of regionally accredited two-year community or junior colleges and fouryear colleges or universities. General Studies: The following equivalency listing shows courses that have been approved by the Morningside College Registrar as meeting Morningside’s current Distribution and Flag (general studies) requirements. There may be additional courses that meet the Distribution and Flag requirements. Students may inquire about course equivalencies by contacting Morningside College’s Transfer Counselor. Major, Minor, Clusters and Elective Courses: Courses submitted for transfer credit for major or minor programs or clusters must be equivalent in methods, subject matter, level of instruction, and requirements to Morningside College courses. The Registrar will determine equivalency in consultation with the Provost and the chairs of the academic departments involved as necessary. Courses submitted as transfer credit for open electives are not subject to the “equivalency test.” They are, however, subject to approval by the Provost and the Registrar. Non-Traditional Credit: Morningside College recognizes that students can gain valuable knowledge through experiences outside of the regular classroom setting. For this reason, Morningside will grant a maximum of 32 semester hours of credit toward a baccalaureate degree based on performance in the following areas: Advanced Placement through the high school, College Level Examination Program (CLEP), International Baccalaureate (IB), Academic Credit for College Equivalent Learning (ACCEL), correspondence, electronic credit, and military credit.

The program is fully approved by the Iowa Department of Education. Its emphasis is on being an “effective educator” – a caring professional who enables people to develop the knowledge, skills, and disposition necessary to participate in a democratic society. The elementary education major requires a concentration in an endorsement area such as Reading, Math, Science, Social Studies, Special Education, Coaching, etc. In partnership with area school districts, students spend time observing in schools, serving as teacher aides, assisting teachers in preparing materials, and preparing and implementing lesson plans. These multiple and early-on field experiences prepare students for a successful student teaching experience.
