It is not a requirement for transfer but may give students an admission advantage at some CSU campuses. Not all CSU campuses accept this degree as fulfillment of lower-di\u0002vision major requirements. Students should meet with a counselor to determine if this degree is a good option for them. Informa\u0002tion on which CSU campuses accept this degree can be found at https://adegreewithaguarantee.com/ PROGRAM INFORMATION Students pursuing the Associate in Arts in Journalism for Transfer Degree (AA-T in Journalism) will engage in the study of journalism. In addition, they will improve their critical thinking, communication skills and writing skills. The goal of this degree is to provide students a basic understanding of the field of Journalism and a strong academic foundation in the social sciences from which to engage in upper division coursework in Journalism at a California State University campus. The Associate in Arts in Journalism for Transfer Degree (AA-T in Journalism) is intended for students who plan to transfer and complete a bachelor's degree in Journalism, or a similar major such as Communica\u0002tions/Media Arts and Marketing at a CSU campus. Students completing the AA-T degree in Journalism are guaranteed admission to the CSU 56   2021-2022 GENERAL CATALOG system, but not necessarily to a particular CSU campus or major of their choice. Students should consult with a counselor for more information on university admission and transfer requirements as this AA-T in Journalism may not be the best option for students intending to transfer to a particular CSU campus or to a college or university that is not part of the CSU system. Students who complete this degree may enter with junior status to the California State University system and will be given priority admission to the CSU system. Student journalists are encour\u0002aged to participate in campus media and internships as productivity is key to success in this rapidly evolving profession. To complete the degree, students must fulfill the following Associate Degree for Transfer requirements (pursuant to SB1440): • Completion of 60 semester units or 90 quarter units that are eligible for transfer to a California State University. • The Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum (IGETC) or the California State University General Education - Breadth Requirements. • A minimum of 18 semester units or 27 quarter units in a major or area of emphasis, as determined by the community college district. • Obtainment of a minimum grade point average of 2.0. • A grade of \"C\" or better (or \"P\" if the course is taken on a pass/ no pass basis) in all courses required for the major or area of emphasis.
