Purpose: The General Studies program is intended for students who wish to transfer to a four-year college or university. This curriculum provides students the opportunity to customize their courses to align with the requirements of their intended baccalaureate degree program. Students are encouraged to work with an academic advisor to select appropriate courses that support their goals. This curriculum is also beneficial for students who plan to transfer to a four-year institution to earn a baccalaureate degree, but have not determined their intended major. It allows these students to explore potential academic interests while completing general education requirements accepted in a wide variety of baccalaureate degree programs.
Admission Requirements: All students will be required to demonstrate college readiness through transcript review or informed self-placement. Based on this review students may request or be required to enroll in prerequisite or corequisite math and/or English courses.
