Liberal Arts Transfer Program

Program Details

Associate in Arts Degree

Massasoit’s Liberal Arts Transfer Program is being phased out. At this time, students can no longer enroll in this program. Current and prospective students who are interested in this course of study are encouraged to enroll in Massasoit's new Liberal Arts Program. Students currently enrolled in the Liberal Arts Transfer Program are not impacted and will continue their enrollment as planned.

The Liberal Arts Transfer Program is designed primarily for those students who plan to transfer, with junior year standing, to a four-year Liberal Arts Baccalaureate Degree Program. The Liberal Arts Transfer Program provides the student with a broad cultural background in the humanities, the natural sciences, mathematics, and the social sciences. This background prepares the student for eventual entry into graduate-level programs in education, law, and medicine, as well as the humanities or the sciences.

Although this program requires a distribution of liberal arts courses, it also allows the student to concentrate in either the humanities, the natural sciences, mathematics, or the social sciences. As there are variations in the graduation requirements of different four-year institutions, students should select electives within this program that comply with the requirements of the programs into which they wish to transfer. Since there are many different programs and requirements at four-year colleges, it is essential that the student receive continual advising from an appropriate member of the science department at Massasoit along with updated information from the four-year college of the student’s choice. This would ensure a smooth transition to the four-year college for the student after his/her graduation from Massasoit.
