The Associate in Science in Geology for Transfer Degree is intended for students
who plan to complete a bachelor’s degree in Geology at a California State University
campus. Students completing this degree are guaranteed admission to the CSU System,
but not to a particular campus or major. Students transferring to a CSU campus that
does accept this degree will be required to complete no more than 60 units after transfer
to earn a bachelor’s degree. This degree may not be the best option for students intending
to transfer to a particular CSU campus or to a university or college that is not part
of the CSU system. In all cases, students should consult with a counselor for more
information on university admission and transfer requirements.
