    Option 1

    For those who have earned AS/AA- Qualify for the Block Credit Transfer (Gen Ed Certification status). This student would receive 60 hours of credit and enter Spalding as a Junior with 2 years left in their bachelors degree. The student will focus on classes specific to the Biology program. Below is the class that must be taken to progress toward upper level Biology course completion. We recommend taking the progression class, if possible, while pursuing your associate’s degree at JCTC. If you are unable to take the progression course, we will be able to work that into your class schedule. The AA/AS degree holding student may not have to meet every course outlined in option 2. Please contact transfer@spalding.edu should you have any questions or want your transcript to be evaluated.
