1998-1999 Catalog

Associate of Arts and Sciences Degree in Business

(Available at Brookhaven, Eastfield, El Centro, Mountain View, Northlake, and Richland Colleges)

THIS DEGREE PLAN IS DESIGNED TO MEET THE NEEDS OF STUDENTS WHO PLAN TO MAJOR IN BUSINESS BUT ARE UNSURE ABOUT WHERE THEY WISH TO TRANSFER. THIS IS A GENERAL PLAN AND MAY OR MAY NOT SATISFY THE REQUIREMENTS OF A SPECIFIC TRANSFER UNIVERSITY.

IN ORDER TO RECEIVE AN ASSOCIATE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES DEGREE, A STUDENT MUST:

Complete a minimum of 61 credit hours including the following courses.
*Receive a grade of "C" or better in core courses.
Have a passing score on all sections of TASP (for students entering DCCCD Fall, 1989, or thereafter).

Students planning to transfer to a four year institution must consult that institution to insure selected courses will both transfer and apply toward the intended major. Once students have decided on the specific four year institution to which they plan to transfer and a specific major within Business, they are strongly encouraged to utilize the transfer degree plan which is customized to meet specific requirements of the selected institution. Material about transfer information is available in the Counseling/Advisement Center.
