¹MTH 167 may be replaced with MTH 161 and 162, but doing so will require MTH 263 to be taken during a summer session or students may not complete the program within 2 years.

²Students who plan to transfer should consult an academic counselor to verify specific program requirements with their intended four-year institution.  While an elective course may satisfy a requirement for a Central Virginia Community College program, it may not fulfill a requirement at a four-year institution.

³See list of Approved Transfer Electives below. Students who have followed the pathway will meet the pre-requisites for these courses. Any other Science electives may have other pre-requisites. Check with transfer institution to ensure you meet their requirements. 4 credit Approved Transfer Electives: BIO 101; CHM 241; ENV 121, 122; GOL 105, 110; MTH 265; NAS 131, 132; PHY 201, PHY 202 (though it is recommended that PHY 201 be taken before PHY 202), PHY 241, PHY 242 (though it is recommended that PHY 241 be taken before PHY 242)
