COMMUNICATION STUDIES
Associate in Arts in Communication Studies for Transfer (AA-T)
The Speech and Communication Studies Department at Ohlone College offers
a wide range of communication studies courses that meet students’ general
education requirements, lower division transfer requirements for CSU and UC
Communication Studies Departments, requirements for Speech and
Communication Studies certificates, and the Associate in Arts in Communication
Studies for Transfer. This department strives to help students gain knowledge of
theoretical perspectives of communication and learn to speak, think, and write
clearly and concisely, critically, and creatively. Students study the necessary skills
to prepare them for transfer in communication studies or related majors. Finally,
the department encourages students to use their communication expertise
ethically and in service to the larger community and to enhance their
relationships and their own personal growth.
The Student Transfer Achievement Reform Act (Senate Bill 1440, codified in
California Education Code sections 66746-66749) guarantees admission to a
California State University (CSU) campus for any community college student
who completes an “associate degree for transfer,” a newly established variation
of the associate degrees traditionally offered at a California community college.
The Associate in Arts in Communication Studies for Transfer is intended for
students who plan to complete a bachelor’s degree in a similar major at a CSU
campus. Students completing this degree are guaranteed admission to the CSU
system, but not to a particular campus or major. In order to earn one of these
degrees, students must complete a minimum of 60 required semester units of
CSU-transferable coursework with a minimum GPA of 2.0. Students transferring
to a CSU campus that does accept the AA-T will be required to complete no
more than 60 units after transfer to earn a bachelor’s degree. This degree may
not be the best option for students intending to transfer to a particular CSU
campus or to university or college that is not part of the CSU system. Students
should consult with a counselor when planning to complete the degree for
more information on university admission and transfer requirements.
