Q.
I’m really interested in
going to ASU, so why
would I consider
Scottsdale Community
College?
A.
Starting out at a community college can
save you time and money, as well as
provide smaller class sizes and a more nurturing
environment. All of the Maricopa Community
Colleges, including SCC, have wonderful
transfer pathways to ASU and other universities.
Through our transfer partnership with ASU, you
can choose from a variety of transfer programs.
If you have a major selected, the Maricopa to
ASU Pathways Program (MAPP) is your best
option. Students in MAPP follow a prescribed
inthezona.com
sequence of course work
that meets the lower-division
course requirements for an ASU major. When
you complete your MAPP, you will have met
the requirements for an associate’s degree and
will have greater chance for success at ASU.
Other benefits of MAPP include guaranteed
admission to ASU, eligibility for the Tuition
Commitment Program and the assurance that
when you transfer you are right on track to earn
your bachelor’s degree. If you don’t have a major
in mind, don’t worry because you can select an
exploratory pathway that will enable you to learn
about ASU majors, career options and the right
courses to take. Other transfer program options
include the RN to BSN Pathway program; the
Associate of Applied Science (AAS) to Bachelor
of Applied Science (BAS) program; and the
General Transfer option. You can start at
SCC and transfer to ASU at any time and
complete a bachelor’s degree in one of more than
250 academic programs. If you’re still not sure,
come to the SCC Welcome Center and talk to an
advisor about getting started on the right path to a
better future.
