Degree and Certificate Requirements
2008-09 Catalog

See also AAS, Business Administration

The Associate of Arts degree with a Business Transfer Emphasis is designed for the student who wishes to transfer to a Colorado four-year public college or university. Students who complete this program, maintain a minimum 2.0 cumulative GPA and earn a “C” or better in all courses shall be fully considered for admission into the business programs offered by state four-year public colleges or universities. This agreement does not guarantee admission to the School of Business. However, it does guarantee that admitted students who follow the condition of this agreement will be guaranteed complete transfer of the A.A. degree up to the maximum allowable course credits. If a student is offered admission, the student will enter with junior standing in the School of Business, provided that the A.A. degree includes all courses specified below.

Students who have earned two-year degrees other than the A.A. in Business or who have not fully completed the degree requirements will be evaluated on a course-by course basis. Individual business courses may transfer and count toward the graduation requirements for a four-year business degree, but the transferable courses are limited to the course equivalents of the courses specified in the curricula of the four-year Business Administration degree programs. The four-year college or university will accept all eligible credits earned within ten years of transfer. Courses earned more than 10 years earlier will be evaluated on an individual basis. Students should review the business degree requirements of the four-year college or university of their interest when making plans to transfer.

This agreement is between the Colorado community colleges and the following Colorado public four-year institutions of higher education: Adams State College, Colorado State University, Colorado State University-Pueblo, Fort Lewis College, Mesa State College, Metropolitan State College of Denver, University of Colorado at Boulder, University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, University of Colorado at Denver, University of Northern Colorado and Western State College.

NOTE: This degree will be conferred as an Associate of Arts. Business Transfer Concentration will not be listed on student's transcript or diploma, but will be recognized by transfer institutions for program admission.
