      "markdown": "The Associate in Arts in English for Transfer degree prepares students to seamlessly transfer into the California State University (CSU) system and complete a baccalaureate degree in English or similar field of study.  A baccalaureate degree in English cultivates strong reading, writing, analytical, and creative skills. It provides a sound foundation for students seeking careers in advertising, communication, film writing, electronic and print journalism, library science, public relations, publishing and editing, law, or teaching.\n\n**To be awarded the Associate in Arts in English for Transfer degree, students must:**\n\n(1) Complete 60 semester units or 90 quarter units which are eligible for transfer to the California State University (CSU) system, including both of the following:\n\n(A) The California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC)\n\n(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.\n\n(2) Obtain a minimum grade point average of 2.0.\n\n_While a minimum of 2.0 is required for admission, some majors may require a higher GPA.  Please consult with a counselor for more information._\n\nAssociate Degrees for Transfer (ADTs) also require that students earn a “C” or better in all courses required for the major or area of emphasis.  A “P” (Pass) grade is also an acceptable grade for courses in the major if the course is taken on a Pass/No Pass basis."
