Current Status

The introduction to the DMACC description of the Associate in Science (AS) degree states:

The Associate of Science provides the courses of study equivalent to those offered to freshman and sophomore-level students pursuing majors in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics at any four-year college/university. If students receive the AS from DMACC, this degree, in most cases, will meet the lower division requirements of four-year colleges/universities and will admit them to junior status level for a Bachelor of Science degree. Students should contact the desired four-year institution to inquire about course and degree recommendations. [underlining added]

I have started to go through the various requirements for the AS degree with the goal of determining how each might fit at Grinnell.

Basic options for each course:

• would not transfer
• would transfer as general Grinnell credits
• would count as general science credit
• would count toward a Grinnell STEM major
  • biology
  • biochemistry
  • chemistry
  • computer science
  • mathematics and statistics
  • physics
  • psychology

Due to time pressures, this process is not very far along — sorry!
