Associate in Science Transfer Degree Business Administration 28-29 Units

The Associate in Science in Business Administration for Transfer (AS-T) degree program is designed as the primary pathway for transfer students intending to earn a baccalaureate degree in business administration at a California State University (CSU).  Successful completion of the AS-T in Business Administration allows priority admissions into the CSU system, but not a particular campus or major. Students who complete this program will have completed the lower-division requirements for transfer to the CSU system, and have acquired the necessary analytical tools to successfully secure gainful employment in most business-related fields.  The AS-T in Business Administration may be earned by completing a minimum of 60 units of degree credit coursework, including the major requirements and breadth requirements, with a minimum grade point average of 2.0.  Students must complete all courses for the major with a grade of C or better.
