The
Associate of Arts degree in Liberal Arts is designed for students wishing to
transfer to a four-year institution for the purpose of seeking a higher degree,
generally in a discipline in the social sciences, humanities, or art.
To
maximize transfer value from this degree, the student should consult an advisor
regarding requirements for the intended program and institution of transfer and
select as “Major Electives” courses most likely to fill lower-division
(freshman and sophomore) requirements. The student is reminded that while
transfer is simplified in some cases by the use of specific transfer agreements
among institutions, acceptance of transfer credits is determined by the
receiving institution.
Electives
may also be used to satisfy anticipated lower-division requirements for a
higher degree.
