• In order to meet program requirements, students registered for ENG 0094  or ENG 1031  must also register for ENG 0094  unless they can demonstrate otherwise meeting the ENG 0094  standard through assessment testing, prior college coursework, or recent High School coursework. See an Advisor for details.
• Lecture and laboratory portions of organic chemistry, CHE 2111  and CHE 2112 , must not be taken in an online delivery format.
• Recommended courses may be listed above for certain electives; consult with the Academic Advising Office (advising@arapahoe.edu or 303.797.5664) for additional elective recommendations.
• Refer to 2022/2023 catalog for specific requirements and important information about this degree.
• Students transferring to a 4-yr college/university under this Chemistry agreement are encouraged to ‘reverse’ transfer the one gtPathways course in arts and humanities and the one gtPathways course in social and behavioral sciences (Note #2 above) back to their community college in order to complete the Pathways general education program and to earn their Associate of Science degree with a Chemistry designation.
• The Colorado Department of Higher Education website has additional information about this statewide agreement. This statewide transfer articulation agreement in Chemistry does not fulfill requirements for the gtPathways general education curriculum or the Associate of Science degree prior to transfer; however, this agreement does guarantee a student, if admitted, junior standing and completion of the baccalaureate degree within an additional 60 semester hours at the receiving institution.
