Students are required to earn a minimum of 90 college-level credits with a 2.0 grade point average to graduate.
The DTA generally provides a student a minimum of 90 quarter or 60 semester credits upon entry to a Baccalaureate Institution. While completion of the DTA satisfies completion of general education requirements at participating Baccalaureate Institutions, it does not guarantee meeting admission criteria, individual institutional educational requirements, or program admissions. Please visit the Transfer Center for schools party to this agreement and further details.
Important Notices:
This degree is applicable for students planning to study various business majors at universities in Washington. Baccalaureate institutions party to this agreement are: Central Washington, Eastern Washington, The Evergreeen College, University of Washington (all campuses), Washington State (all campuses), Western Washington, Gonzaga, Heritage, Pacific Lutheran, St. Martin’s, Seattle, Seattle Pacific, Walla Walla University, and Whitworth.
Meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee Business school admission. Admission for many business schools is competitive, and higher minimum GPAs, a higher GPA in a selected subset of courses, or a specific minimum grade in one or more courses such as math or English may be required. Certain schools may have additional university-specific requirements for admission to the institution that are not prerequisites specifically identified in the DTA requirements. It is strongly recommended that students contact the baccalaureate-granting institution early in the Associate in Business DTA/MRP program to be advised about specific course choices and procedures for admission and graduation requirements.
