Career Outlook

Transfer Agreements

Students in the Psychology program should plan their courses with the assistance of a faculty advisor after checking the requirements of the college to which they intend to transfer. Electives should be chosen carefully according to the desired major at the transfer institution and based on frequent consultation with the assigned Edison State faculty advisor. The courses listed reflect the minimum requirements for the Associate of Science degree. Following the General Degree Requirements will ensure that all degree and transfer requirements will be met.
