Transferring within the Nevada System of Higher Education

The universities and colleges of the Nevada System of Higher Education (NSHE) participate in regular discussions about the transfer status of courses within NSHE. The following common course numbering system is recognized among the colleges of NSHE:

GBC Non-Transferable Developmental Courses
(courses with numbers less than 100)	001 - 099

GBC Non-transferable Courses

Some courses (100-299) offered at Great Basin College may not be used for an Associate of Arts, Associate of Science, Bachelor of Arts, or Bachelor of Science degree. These courses may not be transferable to other Nevada colleges. These courses are identified in course catalog descriptions.

GBC Non-Transferable Non-Credit Courses
Courses with a Z designator or all 000s	001Z - 299Z
University graduate courses	500 - 799

GBC schedules always indicate NSHE course transfer status with these designations. Naturally, transfer courses do not all transfer the same way. Some transfer as equivalents, some as departmental electives, and others as general electives. This catalog provides the information you will need, but even with this printed guide, you should meet with your advisor before registration because courses and programs may change. With the assistance of your advisor, you can make informed decisions.
