1

Students must take EITHER a GT-CO1 course and a GT-CO2 course OR a GT-CO2 course and a GT-CO3 course.

2

See your chosen transfer guide or speak to an academic advisor for specific information on your MAT requirements.

3

If you intend to transfer to the Colorado School of Mines, you must take these courses.

NOTE FOR STUDENTS PLANNING TO TRANSFER: Students who plan on transferring to a four-year institution should review the transfer requirements of the desired program at that institution prior to selecting courses in the third and fourth semester at CCD. It is strongly recommended that students meet with their advisor for assistance after completing 30 credits toward an Associate of Science degree.

NOTE ON DEGREE COMPLETION REQUIREMENTS: Students must complete at least 60 credits in order to graduate with an Associate of Science degree. In any semester, if the total load is less than 15 credits, additional credits must be taken in subsequent semesters to reach 60 credits to graduate. Therefore, when making choices about individual classes, be mindful of the transfer requirements of your anticipated four-year institution and of the impact on the 60 credit Associate of Science degree. It is strongly recommended that an individualized degree plan be completed with the help of an advisor.

NOTE ON PREREQUISITES: Students who have taken prerequisite courses longer than seven years ago are strongly encouraged to take an assessment test over the prerequisite material to ensure adequate prior knowledge to be successful in future courses. The outcome of the assessment test will help the student determine whether or not he or she needs to re-take the prerequisite course. The assessment test is available in the CCD Testing Center.

For Health Science degrees, because of program accreditation requirements, students must have completed all science courses within the previous seven years before the first day of class in a health program.
