NOTES:

  1. This statewide transfer articulation agreement in Chemistry does not fulfill requirements for the GT Pathways general education curriculum or the Associate of Science degree prior to transfer; however, this agreement does guarantee a student, if admitted, junior standing and completion of the baccalaureate degree within an additional 60 semester hours at the receiving institution.
  2. Completion of the receiving institution’s lower division general education requirements is fulfilled only under the condition that one GT Pathways-approved course in Arts & Humanities (AH1, AH2, AH3, or AH4) and one GT Pathways-approved course in Social & Behavioral Sciences (SS1, SS2, or SS3) are successfully completed at the receiving institution within the first 30 hours or 12 calendar months.
  3. Students transferring to a four-year college/university under this Chemistry agreement are encouraged to ‘reverse’ transfer the one GT Pathways course in Arts & Humanities and the one GT Pathways course in Social & Behavioral Sciences (Note #2 above) back to their community college in order to complete the GT Pathways general education program and to earn their Associate of Science degree with a Chemistry designation.
  4. Lecture and laboratory portions of Organic Chemistry, CHE 2111 and CHE 2112, must not be taken in an online delivery format.
