Course Prerequisites and Advisories:

Courses in a program of study may have prerequisites or advisories; that is, courses that must or should be completed before taking that course. Please check for prerequisites or advisories by clicking on the course numbers in the Program Requirements section.

It is important that students who are completing an Associate Degree and desire to transfer to a four-year institution meet with a counselor to plan their lower division coursework. While many majors at SRJC are intended to align with lower division major preparation required by California public universities, specific lower-division major requirements vary among individual campuses. See a counselor, visit the Transfer Center, and check Guides For Transfer in Specific Majors, and ASSIST to review transfer preparation guides for specific schools and majors.

Notes:

Any course used to satisfy the List A requirement cannot be used to fulfill the requirement for List B.

Business Administration majors are strongly encouraged to also take BAD 53, Introduction to Solving Business Problems with Spreadsheets.

Students are strongly encouraged to take two Math courses. Most CSU campuses require two Math courses. Check with a counselor to determine the requirement for the campus that you plan to attend.

Students whose Math placement is not at MATH 155 or higher will need to take MATH 155 as a prerequisite to ECON 1, ECON 2, and MATH 9, 15, or 16.
