Transfer Degrees
TRANSFER DEGREES are 2-year associate degrees designed for transfer because they include the GENERAL EDUCATION requirements for California State 4-year colleges and universities. If you plan to transfer to a 4-year school to earn a bachelor’s degree, it is recommended that you choose a TRANSFER DEGREE.
All transfer degrees require completion of at least 60 transferrable semester units. In general, transferrable courses at Lassen College are those numbered 1-49. However, there are exceptions and not all courses are transferrable to all UC campuses, out-of-state or private colleges. Please speak to your counselor or the Transfer Center to determine course transferability.
EDUCATION PLAN – Completion of a comprehensive Education Plan in your second semester will keep you on track, and help determine additional major prep coursework which can be completed before you transfer.
University Studies Degrees and Associate Degrees for Transfer (AA-T & AS-T)
We have two types of transfer degrees – University Studies Degrees and Associate Degrees for Transfer (either AA-T or AS-T). While both transfer to 4-year schools, the AA-T or AS-T is called “A Degree with a Guarantee” because completion of one of these degrees guarantees you admission to a campus within the CSU (California State University) System, if completing a bachelors degree in the same major.
