RACC to Albright Transfer Guide & Course Equivalencies Thank you for considering Albright College for your transfer needs. We have designed this Course by Course Transfer Guide for your convenience. Each of RACC s transferable courses is listed with the Albright course that is its equivalent, along with any graduation requirement it fulfills. This information will assist you in course selection and will lead to a smoother transition from Reading Area Community College to Albright. Albright College operates on a course unit system, rather than semester hours. All Albright courses are considered equal to all others. Three, four and five credit hour courses at RACC are considered equivalent to one Albright course unit. One and two credit hour courses do not transfer. Graduation Requirements complete 32 course units, at least 16 of which must be taken at Albright; complete the requirements within your major(s); and, complete 15 courses. Requirements English Composition (EC) - two courses are required. Fine Arts (FA) - one course is required from art, theatre or music. Foreign Language (FL) - one-to-three courses are required. Native speakers of a foreign language are exempt. Humanities (HU) - four courses are required from at least three of the following areas: literature, history, philosophy or religious studies.
