College Transfer Programs

 

The college has seven academic divisions through which the total academic instructional program is conducted. The division faculty work under the guidance of a chair who is responsible to the Vice President and Dean of Academic Affairs. The faculty and chairs are responsible for initiating new programs and changing existing programs.

 

College transfer programs and career programs of study are available to the student. The college transfer studies are designed to prepare the student to enter a senior institution as a junior. Some courses prescribed are common to both the career and transfer programs, others are not. To avoid loss of credit, any student who is undecided about entering a transfer program or a career program should work closely with his/her advisor to take courses common to both types of programs.

 

The college offers two associate degrees in the college transfer program: the Associate of Science and the Associate of Arts. Under one of these two degrees comes the program of study which the student chooses. An Associate of Science degree is offered in all divisions except Humanities. The college transfer curricula which lead to this degree prepare the student to transfer and continue a program leading to the Bachelor of Science degree in the elected major. The Associate of Arts degree offered in the Humanities and Social Science Divisions prepares the student who seeks to earn the Bachelor of Arts degree in the elected major.

 

Regardless of the program of study chosen, each student in the transfer program must complete the requirements of the college-wide Core Curriculum. Physical Education and Freshman Seminar course requirements are in addition to 60 hours required in the Core Curriculum.
