The Associate of Arts degree (A.A.) at JCCC is a general transfer degree and partners well with the first two
years of most bachelor degree programs. Students pursuing the A.A. may select courses that satisfy both the
A.A. degree requirements and lower division requirements for a bachelor’s degree at four-year institutions.
The elective hours within the A.A. allows students to complete additional general education and lower division
courses required for specific majors. The A.A. degree requires completion of 64 credit hours, the maximum
number of hours from a community college that will be applied toward a bachelor’s degree at most four-year
schools. Meeting with a JCCC counselor is strongly recommended for selection of appropriate courses.
•
If students have completed an AA or AS degree, they are only required to fulfill the Spiritual Development area of the general education requirements.
•
Certain majors may require specific classes in the general education core. Students should check the major’s specific section of the current MNU catalog for requirements and with a faculty advisor from that department to determine applicability of transfer courses.
•
Upper division credit will NOT be given for lower division courses that are transferred in as equivalents to upper division courses.
•
Courses from the Learning Center, Academic Achievement Center, and Learning Strategies will not transfer to MNU. These courses are considered remedial or developmental. With special approval from the Kresge Academic Support Center at MNU, required developmental courses at MNU could be waived with satisfactory completion of courses from these areas. No college credit will be granted for these courses.
