The Associate in Science Transfer Degree, is intended for students majoring in science who wish to transfer as juniors to four-year institutions in Washington. Three different options are offered: 1) biological science, chemistry, geology, and earth science 2) computer science, physics, atmospheric science and engineering or 3) agriculture. This degree allows students to concentrate on fulfilling pre-major coursework in their intended field of study.
Students may earn an Associate in Science (AS) Degree, which is designed for those who complete a 93 credit program that is parallel with the first two years of a baccalaureate institution to which they intend to transfer. A cumulative gpa of 2.0 or higher is required for successful completion of this degree.
Coursework is concentrated in specific mathematics and sciences requirements. Additional coursework in general education, humanities and social sciences will be required at the transfer institution. Some remaining general education requirements may be satisfied with upper division courses. Students need to meet with department advisors at the baccalaureate institution to determine appropriate educational plan.

|
| Important Notice |
Transfer students should plan their degrees in accordance with the requirements of the institution to which they plan to transfer. They should also be aware that colleges within universities may have admission requirements significantly higher than the 2.0 gpa required for the AS Degree and that they may look at performance in specific classes in determining a student’s admission.
Selecting the appropriate courses in fulfilling the AS Degree saves students time and expense in completing the requirements of a bachelor’s degree. Courses that are considered upper division (junior-senior level) at a baccalaureate institution may need to be repeated if taken at a community college.
Students may meet graduation requirements in the catalog current at the time of their initial enrollment, provided enrollment toward their educational objective is continuous (from quarter to quarter) during the academic years involved. Otherwise, graduation requirements will be those listed in the catalog in use at the time of graduation. |
