Mathematics (AS-T Degree S0333)

Natural Sciences Division
Degree S0333
The Associate in Science in Mathematics for Transfer is designed to facilitate successful transfer to a baccalaureate mathematics program. This degree provides the lower division breadth and depth of calculus, differential equations, and linear algebra. Students who complete the requirements for this degree will be prepared to continue their studies in mathematics. Students in the STEM fields can complete a majority, if not all, of their lower division Math requirements by completing the Associate in Science in Mathematics for Transfer degree requirements.

To earn an Associate in Science in Mathematics for Transfer a student must complete 60 semester units that are eligible for transfer to the CSU that consist of Cal-GETC pattern and a major of at least 18 units. Students must have a minimum GPA of 2.0 in all CSU-transferable coursework to receive an associate degree for transfer and all courses in the major must be completed with a C or better. A ‘P’ (Pass) grade is also an acceptable grade for courses in the major if the course is taken on Pass or No Pass basis. Students earning an associate degree for transfer will not be required to complete any other local graduation requirements.
