Mathematics Associate in Science for Transfer

The Associate of Science in Mathematics for Transfer is intended for all students who plan to complete an Associate of Science degree in Mathematics. This degree is especially valuable for those students planning on completing a bachelor’s degree in Mathematics at a California State University (CSU) campus because the Associate of Science in Mathematics for Transfer guarantees admission to the CSU system (but not to a particular campus or major). Upon completion of the following requirements, the student will be eligible for an Associate Degree for Transfer: (1) Completion of 60 semester units or 90 quarter units that are eligible for transfer to the California State University, including both of the following: a. California General Education Transfer Curriculum (CalGETC). b. A minimum of 18 semester units or 27 quarter units in a major or area of emphasis, as determined by the community college district. (2) Obtainment of a minimum grade point average of 2.0. (3) The completion of all courses required for the major with a “C” or better. A “P” (Pass) grade is acceptable for courses in the major.
