College Transfer Program
JSCC offers a two-year college transfer program for
students who want to pursue a four-year baccalaureate degree at a senior
college or university. The program includes required freshman- and sophomore-level
courses in English composition, humanities/fine arts, social/behavioral
sciences, natural sciences/mathematics and physical education. In addition,
students may take college transfer electives selected to meet their individual
needs and interests and the requirements of the specific major areas of
study.
An individualized program of study will be designed to meet each student's needs. Each student should ask regarding transferability of courses to the specific college or university the student plans to attend. Students may select from the following concentrations within the college transfer program.
