ADDITIONAL PROGRAM INFORMATION<br />
The Associate in Fine Arts – Art Degree is designed<br />
so that transfer students will fit in with<br />
the native students at the transfer school, taking<br />
the remainder of their studio courses (no more<br />
than two per semester) along with the remaining<br />
general education courses.<br />
Completion of the Associate in Fine Arts degree<br />
does not fulfill the requirements of the IAI General<br />
Education Core. Students need to complete the<br />
general education requirements of the institution<br />
to which they transfer or take an additional<br />
social and behavioral science course to meet IAI<br />
general education requirements before transferring.<br />
However, the Associate in Fine Arts degree<br />
satisfies IAI studio requirements for a Bachelor of<br />
Fine Arts degree.<br />
Students in this program should expect to take<br />
additional general education courses as required<br />
by the transfer institution and may be required to<br />
submit a portfolio for transfer placement.<br />
KCC also offers an Associate in Arts in Visual<br />
Arts. See Page 58.<br />
