Liberal Arts General - Community College of Philadelphia

Liberal Arts General from Community College of Philadelphia is a Campus Associate Liberal Arts and Science degree that prepares you for a Liberal Arts career. The Liberal Arts degree program is for liberal arts students planning to transfer to baccalaureate programs or professional schools after study at Community College of Philadelphia; for students seeking a non-specialized associate degree; for students planning to enter certain select programs at a later date; and for students undecided about their long-term educational goals. Students are expected to consult with an academic advisor or counselor upon entry to the program and in subsequent semesters. Transfer planning should begin early, so that the student can gain the most benefit from the curriculum. Students who follow the Liberal Arts curriculum and plan to attend a specific four-year college after graduation should choose elective courses that duplicate as closely as possible those in the first two years of the program of that college. Compared to the other designated options, the General Option is the most flexible model, leaving the most choices open to students. It therefore makes students and advisors responsible for shaping the selection of courses to meet individual goals. Program Entry Requirements: Students are typically required to take the College's placement tests at their time of entry. Students identified as needing developmental course work must satisfactorily complete the appropriate English and mathematics courses as a part of their degree program. Program of Study and Graduation Requirements: To qualify for the Associate in Arts (A.A.) degree in Liberal Arts , a student must complete a minimum of 61 credit hours as prescribed and attain a grade point average of 2.0 (?C? average).
