Physics 114 is a Laboratory Science Course. It transfers as Physics 114 + Physics 117 (the Lab section) at UW and as equivalent courses in most other Washington colleges. Note that our courses are six credits and the corresponding UW pair is only five credits. UW will not transfer this class as a six credit class.

This course may transfer as the first semester physics course at a college using the semester system, however you are more likely to need P114 and P115 together to make an equivalent course. For example the pairs 114/115 and 115/116 transfer to WSU as each of their successive one semester courses, and all three will transfer as the full year at WSU, but individually they only count as general science credit.

Physics 115 is a Laboratory Science Course. It transfers as Physics 115 + Physics 118 (the Lab section) at UW and as equivalent courses in most other Washington colleges. This course probably will not transfer directly to a college using the semester system without one or both of P114 and P116. Contact the college of interest for details

Physics 116 is a Laboratory Science Course. It transfers as Physics 116 + Physics 119 (the Lab section) at UW and as equivalent courses in most other Washington colleges. This course may transfer as the second semester physics course at a college using the semester system, however you are more likely to need P115 and P116 together to make an equivalent course.

Physics 121 is a Laboratory Science Course. It transfers as Physics 121 at UW and as equivalent courses in most other Washington colleges. Note that our courses are six credits and the corresponding UW pair is only five credits. UW will not transfer this class as a six credit class. This course may transfer as the first semester physics course at a college using the semester system, however you are more likely to need P121 and P122 together to make an equivalent course.

Physics 122 is a Laboratory Science Course. It transfers as Physics 122 at UW and as equivalent courses in most other Washington colleges. This course probably will not transfer directly to a college using the semester system without one or both of P121 and P123. Contact the college of interest for details

Physics 123 is a Laboratory Science Course. It transfers as Physics 123 at UW and as equivalent courses in most other Washington colleges. This course may transfer as the second semester physics course at a college using the semester system, however you are more likely to need P122 and P123 together to make an equivalent course.

Physics 225 is a non-lab Science Course. It transfers as Physics 225 at UW and as equivalent courses in most other Washington colleges. This course may transfer as the second year physics course at a college using the semester system.
