Spanish (AA-T)

USA

What will I learn?

A student completing the Associate in Arts for Transfer in Spanish will have a solid background in reading, writing, speaking, and comprehending Spanish and will have developed both an understanding and appreciation of Hispanic cultures. The student will be prepared for upper division coursework in Spanish at a four-year university, or, should he/she pursue other fields of study, will have achieved a level of competence in Spanish that will both enhance job performance and increase marketability in professions where knowledge of Spanish is either necessary or advantageous.

The Spanish Associate in Arts for Transfer degree is designed to provide a clear pathway to a CSU major and baccalaureate degree. California Community College students who are awarded an ADT are guaranteed admission with junior standing somewhere in the CSU system. This priority does not guarantee admission to specific majors or campuses. Current and prospective community college students are encouraged to meet with a counselor to develop an educational plan that best meets their goals and needs.
