Focus Articulation

UH SYSTEM: Writing-intensive designations and articulation are handled by boards on each UH campus. Instructors should contact the board on their campus for information. System-transfer students* can transfer writing-intensive ("W" or "WI") credit from any UH campus to UH Mānoa. System-transfer students are required to complete 5 writing-intensive courses to graduate, at least 2 of the 5 must be numbered at the 300- or 400-level.
