Purpose: The curriculum is designed for the student who plans to complete a baccalaureate degree program.

The transfer institution’s catalog and transfer guide are the best sources of information for planning a course of study. Final responsibility for transferability of courses rests with the student and the registrar of that institution. Contact the division dean or an advisor for additional information.

locate, evaluate, interpret, and combine information to reach well-reasoned conclusions and solutions
