Common Course Numbering
The vision of the Common Course Numbering (CCN) initiative is to align the University of Arkansas System institutions under a common course numbering schema and index to support Arkansas students in transfer, remove barriers to higher education, and ease administrative overhead of determining course equivalency in the processing of transcripts.
All 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 courses will be converted to CCN in Fall 2025. See the course lookup page below to find the current 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 number and the CCN number for that course.

- An initial course number list was built using the Arkansas Course Transfer System (ACTS) list. This list was the driver for building a full subject code prefix list.
- For courses that did not have a prefix in the ACTS system, the following prefixes were used:
- UA Fayetteville prefixes (general coursework)
- UA MS prefixes (all medical and health related disciplines)
- UA Pulaski Technical College prefixes (all technical disciplines)
- The initial course discipline prefix list was distributed to UA System institutions for review. Any institution that had course disciplines not covered by the initial prefix list submitted those disciplines for consideration.
- Institutions were asked to provide a complete course list matched to the subject codes provided so a complete system course list compiled.
- Registrars were asked to match existing course equivalencies based on prior course evaluations beginning with ACTS courses.
- The Common Course Numbering Index of all courses and all 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 schools was presented to each campus for review.
- The final index of courses was presented to each institution after this last round of reviews.
