This degree is designed for those students who plan to transfer to a four-year institution to earn a higher degree in a business-related field. It does not provide the technical knowledge or skills needed to obtain employment in a business-related field. The degree is intended as a transfer degree only.

Hints

  • Students should plan to study six hours per week for each class.
  • Students should take all remedial courses early in order to focus on degree-required classes in later semesters.
  • Students should take classes when offered as some classes are only offered certain semesters.
  • Students should plan electives early to insure completion of courses within the desired time frame.

Notes

*Specific business courses are often required as pre-requisites for upper-division business courses at four-year institutions. These courses vary by institution. To ensure that the business electives selected will meet the requirements at a specific four-year institution, the student should contact the transfer institution.
