The Associate in Science in Mathematics for Transfer is designed to guide the student seeking a bachelor’s degree in Mathematics to fulfill the lower division requirements for that degree.
This associate degree is designed to provide a clear pathway to a CSU major and baccalaureate degree. California Community College students who are awarded an AS-T are guaranteed admission with junior standing somewhere in the CSU system and given priority admission consideration to their local CSU campus or to a program that is deemed similar to their community college major.
