I'm looking into Clark College and trying to figure out their transfer degree options. Can anyone explain what degrees they offer that make the transfer process easier to a four-year university?
Sure, I can help with that. Clark College offers several associate degree programs specifically designed to facilitate a seamless transfer to a four-year college or university.
The Associate of Arts degree (AA-DTA) and the Associate of Science-Transfer degree (AS-T) are among the main transfer degrees offered at Clark. The AA-DTA is mostly advisable for students who plan to pursue a bachelor's degree in the arts, humanities, social sciences, or other related fields.
On the other hand, the AS-T is divided into two different tracks: AS-T Track 1 is intended for students planning on studying a science major like Chemistry or Biology in their four-year institution, while AS-T Track 2 is for those focusing on Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, and Atmospheric Sciences.
These degree programs are designed to not only satisfy the general education requirements of most four-year colleges and universities but also match the prerequisites of specific majors.
In addition to these general transfer degrees, Clark College offers Direct Transfer Agreements (DTA), which allows students to easily transfer from two-year programs to baccalaureate institutions and universities in the state. Some of these programs include the Associate in Business DTA/MRP (Major Related Program), Associate in Biology DTA/MRP, and Associate in Nursing DTA/MRP.
Make sure you work closely with your academic advisor to ensure that the classes you choose align with the major or field of study you plan to pursue at a four-year college.
