For Curriculum Information Contact the Arts and Humanities Division—Room HVPA-200—410-772-4940

This curriculum is designed for those who want to study pre-law, journalism, interdisciplinary studies, English, sociology, economics and other similar disciplines at a four-year school. It gives the student the flexibility to pursue a major interest and, at the same time, to fulfill the lower-division general education requirements for transfer to a baccalaureate degree program. Students should seek guidance from advisors and the institution to which they wish to transfer to determine appropriate coursework for specific transfer programs.
