Honors courses are acceptable where available.

Pre-requisites:

• College-ready in Math and English.
• 2 years of the same foreign language completed in high school.
  Students who do not meet these pre-requisites may need to complete additional credits.

Once an associate degree is earned, additional courses taken at LCCC may not be eligible for financial aid. Please see Financial Aid for details.

This map represents one example of how to complete the AAS and BSHS degrees. Students should refer to the LCCC Catalog and CSU Catalog for requirements, course sequencing, and other degree information, as well as work closely with counselors/advisors at both institutions to discuss options. To further discuss the Bachelor of Science in health Sciences requirement, please contact Cleveland State’s College of Health Student Services office at COHadvising@csuohio.edu.

** Students who do not complete the OT 36 should refer to the transfer guide for LCCC options to fulfill their General Education requirements. If 60 credits are transferred into CSU, the student will only need one Writing Across the Curriculum course.

^ A grade of C or higher is required in English Composition courses, Writing Across the Curriculum, and all Health Science major requirements. Up to 18 credits of PTHA courses with a C or higher will apply toward the major.
