Elementary Education – Transfer to Regional Programs<br />
Transferability of general education courses to Teacher Education programs at a regional four-year college or<br />
university varies. <strong>Diné</strong> <strong>College</strong> students desiring to take as many courses as possible at any of our campuses before<br />
transferring need to consult with their advisors. It is important to confirm that courses are transferable to the college<br />
where the baccalaureate degree will be completed. Advisement is critical and dependent upon the Teacher Education<br />
program chosen. Both the Center for <strong>Diné</strong> Teacher Education advisors and the four-year college or university<br />
advisor work together with students to confirm transferable <strong>Diné</strong> <strong>College</strong> courses.<br />
Fine Arts<br />
The Fine Arts program at <strong>Diné</strong> <strong>College</strong> offers a visual arts curriculum for students who expect to transfer to a fouryear<br />
program. The curriculum promotes personal development in the arts. It includes studio art courses in Ceramics,<br />
Drawing, Commercial Art, Graphics, Painting, Photography, and Sculpture, as well as in Art History and Art<br />
Education. Interested students should consult the catalogs of four-year institutions that offer Bachelor of Fine Arts<br />
programs and speak with Fine Arts advisors.<br />
