About Our Programs
The Associate in Arts & Sciences Degree
programs of study are designed for students who
plan to transfer to a four-year college or university
to complete a baccalaureate degree program,
usually the Bachelor of Arts or the Bachelor
of Science degree. You are urged to acquaint
yourself with the requirements of the
major department in the institution to which
transfer is being considered and to work closely
with faculty advisors and counselors in planning
an appropriate program.
The Associate in Arts & Sciences Degree
also prepares you to enter pre-professional programs
in the areas of Dentistry, Law, Medical
Technology, Medicine, Pharmacy, Physical
Therapy, and Radiologic Technology.
Special Considerations
Entry into the programs requires the satisfactory
completion of four (4) units of high
school English, two (2) units of high school algebra,
one (1) unit of geometry, one (1) unit of
laboratory science, and one (1) unit of social
science or their equivalent. Deficiencies in
these areas may be corrected by completing the
appropriate developmental studies courses.
You are encouraged to check the mathematics
requirements of the four-year college or university
to which you plan to transfer to determine
the appropriate courses to be taken at
MECC. In addition, you should contact the appropriate
four-year institution to determine the
transferability of electives. Students planning
to become teachers should check the requirements
of Teacher Education programs at fouryear
institutions.
The Division of Student Services publishes
and updates regularly the College Transfer
Guide, which is a tool to guide transferring students
in the selection of elective courses. This
guide contains information on course equivalencies
for the majority of institutions to which
MECC students transfer. Advisors can assist
students with course selection, including transfer
electives, for schools not listed in the guide
on a case by case basis.
