It's very important to know if your area of academic interest is
offered at South Puget Sound Community College. There may also be some
special considerations for specific programs.
Transfer Degrees
Transfer
students, by earning an Associate of Arts degree, can satisfy
general university requirements normally taken during the freshman
and sophomore years. Earning an Associate of Arts degree will
guarantee transfer students junior standing at all public and most
private baccalaureate institutions in Washington state. It does not, however, guarantee admission, so transfer students are strongly encouraged to contact their four-year school for specified admission requirements. The
Associate of Science Degree will serve those students intending to
complete the required course work for preprofessional programs at
selected baccalaureate institutions.
