Students following the art pathway are also encouraged to complete two studio art courses in two different mediums. Studio art courses should be selected on consultation with a faculty advisor based on the students’ major, concentration, or focus. These courses may transfer as part of the associate degree but may not transfer as course-to-course equivalencies.
Additional transfer course options can be found within our community college Transfer Plans. All students should consult an art academic advisor for academic advising to create a personalized academic plan, register for classes, and learn more about student success resources.
