Yes, they DO Yes, Los Andes and Javeriana have agreements with most American universities and they do credit transfers. I hope you meant B.A and NOT AA! :-)
Enjoy Colombia!

I go to school at the University of California San Diego, and I think the following will apply to all of the UCs such as Berkeley and UCLA etc. and most other universities in the US. It accepts credit from ANY accredited institution.. but simply getting credit is not the hardest part, the hardest part is getting credit for REQUIREMENTS. And to do this for many classes you have to do petitions to the department for each class. So save your notes! save your tests! and especially save your syllabi if you have any and write down which books you used.

As far as being a "sister school" I think that simply facilitates study abroad programs, and since you want to apply to be a transfer student, these are not the same thing.
