|
|
 Return to: Degrees and Certificates by Location
Students are required to earn a minimum of 90 college-level credits with a 2.0 grade point average to graduate. A minimum of 58 credits of general education/core courses is required.
Important Notice:
The Associate in Science Transfer (AS-T) Degree, Option II is designed to prepare students for upper division study in the areas of engineering, computer science, physics, and atmospheric science. Completing the AS-T degree does not guarantee students admission to the major.
Students completing this AS-T will receive the same priority consideration for admission to the baccalaureate institution as they would for completing the Associate in Arts DTA Degree and will be given junior status by the receiving institution. Additional general education requirements, cultural diversity requirements, and foreign language requirements, as required by the transfer institution, must be met prior to the completion of a baccalaureate degree. Students need to meet with department advisors at the baccalaureate institution to determine an appropriate educational plan.
The following is a link to a list of courses that satisfy the distribution areas below:
