Transfer Information
Students are advised to work closely with the faculty and counseling staff for program and course scheduling. Electives should be chosen carefully to meet the requirements of the transfer institution. The responsibility for proper course selection rests with the student.
Recommended Preparation
Satisfactory completion of the following high school units or equivalent: 4 units of English and 4 units of college preparatory mathematics
1 Students with prior programming experience or Advanced Placement credit should talk to a Computer Science academic adviser to determine the appropriate first course to take in the NOVA Computer Science course sequence. Due to the range of credits in Computer Science electives and Physical or Life Sciences, the student should plan out coursework with an adviser to stay within the required range.
2 May choose from the following list: CSC 205, CSC 206, CSC 208, EGR 265, MTH 265, MTH 266, or MTH 288. Students should consult a faculty adviser and their transfer institution to select appropriate courses. Due to the range of credits in Computer Science electives and Physical or Life Sciences, the student should plan out coursework with an adviser to stay within the required range.
3 May substitute with CST 110. Students should consult an academic adviser to select the appropriate course.
4 Students may substitute MTH 167 (5 cr) with MTH 161 (3 cr) and MTH 162 (3 cr). Due to the range of credits in Computer Science electives and Physical or Life Sciences, the student should plan out coursework with an adviser to stay within the required range.
5 Students placed into MTH 263 or MTH 264, should begin with that course. Students will not need to take the lower level mathematics classes if they place into a higher class and should select appropriate courses in consultation with an adviser. Due to the range of credits in Computer Science electives and Physical or Life Sciences, the student should plan out coursework with an adviser to stay within the required range.
6 See humanities/fine arts courses listed under General Education Electives. Elective should be selected with the advice of a counselor or academic adviser to meet the requirements of the transfer institution.
7 See biology, chemistry (excluding CHM 101–102), ENV 121–122, physics, geology, or natural science courses with a lab component, listed under General Education Electives. Some four-year colleges require a two-semester sequence.
8 See social/behavioral science courses listed under General Education Electives. All electives should be selected in conjunction with an advisor and after examining the requirements at the transfer institution.
