50 Academic Curricula North Dakota University System GERTA (General Education Requirement Transfer Agreement) The North Dakota University System (NDUS) GERTA was developed to assist students who transfer within the NDUS and within North Dakota tribal and private colleges who participate in GERTA. The GERTA agreement states that general education courses taken at any GERTA institution count upon transfer toward the general education requirements at all GERTA institutions in one of the following two ways: • If the general education coursework includes courses from each of these General Education Areas (GEA) totaling at least 36 semester hours and the courses complete the general education requirements of the institution from which the student transfers, then the student is deemed to have completed the lower division general education requirements of the institution to which the courses are transferred. • In all other cases the general education courses from the GEA are applicable to an appropriate general education requirement of the institution to which they transferred. The number of credits required to complete the general education requirement in each GEA is determined by the policies of the institution to which the courses are transferred. The following list indicates the GERTA general education areas and the Dakota College courses that have been approved for the purpose of meeting general education requirements for transfer to other NDUS institutions.
