Associate of Arts and Sciences Transfer Degree Business Administration Specialization
PURPOSE
The Associate of Arts and Sciences Transfer Degree Program, Business Administration Specialization, is designed for persons who plan to transfer to a four-year college or university to complete a baccalaureate degree in a business-related field such as Business Administration or Accounting. Students are also encouraged to investigate Guaranteed Admission Agreements (GAA), available for many colleges and universities in Virginia. Interested students should discuss this with their academic advisor, contact the admissions office of their selected college, and review the college’s transfer guide.
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
In addition to the admissions requirements established for the college, entry into this program requires proficiency in English, mathematics and reading. Students who do not meet these entry requirements or whose placement test scores indicate a need for further preparation, will be placed in the appropriate developmental studies courses in English, mathematics, and/or reading.
Program Requirement
This curriculum should provide sufficient flexibility to meet lower division requirement for business majors at a variety of colleges and universities and provide students success in transferring to obtain a baccalaureate degree. It is extremely important for students to work closely with their academic advisors to assure their successful transfer.
