1 Students 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.

2 MTH 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.
 
3 Students who take the Organic Chemistry route (CHM 241 & 245 for course #10 and CHM 242 & 246 for course #14) or take CHM 241 & 245 as their course #18 elective will finish their program with more than 61 credits.
