Table of Course Equivalents between USNA and Other US Service Academies
Last Updated: 19 November 2008

The table on the following pages is intended as a convenience to assist midshipmen selected for the Service Academy Exchange Program and their advisers. It lists courses that exchange midshipmen may take at other service academies and the Naval Academy courses for which they will receive credit. Every course taken by midshipmen for credit at their host academy must have an approved equivalent at the Naval Academy. Indeed, a midshipman's Naval Academy transcript will list Naval Academy course numbers rather than the designations used at the host academy.

While an attempt will be made to keep this table current, it is NOT a guarantee that the courses listed will be offered at the host academy. Midshipmen should pay attention to the date of last revision of this table and verify that courses desired will be offered in the semester of the exchange. Courses do change from semester to semester. Midshipmen may receive credit for courses at their host academy even if not listed here, provided they receive written permission to do so from the chair of the cognizant department at the Naval Academy. Midshipmen will be issued forms for this purpose.

In some cases, courses taken elsewhere may not have as many hours of laboratory or other lessons as the corresponding course at the Naval Academy. The department concerned may require that, upon return to the Naval Academy, midshipmen make up the difference between what was taken and the material covered at the Naval Academy. This is indicated in the table below by a red asterisk (*). The cognizant Naval Academy department chair must be consulted in advance.

A green asterisk (*) indicates that equivalent credit depends on particulars that vary from semester to semester. The cognizant Naval Academy department chair must be consulted in advance.

It is understood that despite the best plans, midshipmen may need to change their academic programs when they arrive at their host academies. Midshipmen should consult with their academic advisers and the chair of the department in which course credit is desired. When a change is made in a midshipman's academic program while the midshipman is at his/her host academy, it must be reported immediatelyto the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs at the Naval Academy.

Information about courses at the Service Academies is posted at:
