The Associate of Arts and the Associate of Science curriculum suggested in this Catalog satisfies the requirements of most senior institutions. However, it is the student’s responsibility to identify, as early as possible, the institution to which they will transfer. The student should then ascertain the specific requirements of that institution for the freshman and sophomore years. Each student’s curriculum should be planned by the student and an advisor with a specific institution in mind. If Laredo College does not have an articulation agreement with a specific four-year institution, the student should request an agreement in writing from that institution regarding acceptance of Laredo College's coursework.
