Arts and Sciences ARTS AND SCIENCES DIVISION PROGRAM INFORMATION The Arts and Sciences Division is comprised of five departments: English, Humanities, Mathematics, Science, and Social Sciences. Two associate degrees are offered: Associate in Arts (AA) and Associate in Science (AS). In addition, a General Studies Certificate is offered. TRANSFER TO OTHER COLLEGES Entrance requirements for transfer students vary widely among senior colleges. Many colleges require a grade point average (GPA) of 2.5 at the two-year college. They prefer students whose records reflect work toward a major and are free of grades of W, WF, or F (see Grade Definitions). Students have the responsibility, with the assistance of their academic advisor, to plan their program of study to meet the requirements of the college to which they expect to transfer. Transfer bulletins showing equivalent courses are available in the Arts and Sciences Division Office in Oconee Hall. Courses similar to those offered at public and private senior colleges are usually transferable if a student makes a grade of “C” or higher. Generally, courses taken at Tri-County will not substitute for 300- or 400-level courses required for a major at a senior college. SCHEDULING AND ENTRY OPTIONS Day and evening classes are available. Although major courses start in the Fall Semester, students may enter any term. Full-time day students usually complete degree requirements in four semesters. Part-time students, day or evening, should allow at least eight consecutive terms to earn a degree. Certificate students can complete their requirements in less time depending on how many courses are taken each term. The sequence of courses students take will vary depending upon the college to which they plan to transfer and their major. Some general guidelines for students include: (1) New students should take any preparatory courses during the first term; (2) First year students should enroll in College Orientation (COL 101), an introduction to college and college survival skills; (3) Students should begin basic courses such as English, mathematics, and science as soon as possible; (4) Students should delay taking a foreign language until the second year unless they have taken a foreign language in high school; (5) Employed students should consider taking a reduced load. who plan a career in education, journalism, psychology or another liberal arts field. It is designed to give students the opportunity to complete the first two years of college work at Tri-County Technical College and then transfer to a four-year institution to complete their bachelor’s degree. For maximum transfer of credit, students should work with their academic advisors to review the requirements for their anticipated major at the college to which they plan to transfer and schedule their courses accordingly.
