Entrance to Major Requirements for Associate Degree Programs
Students entering any of the associate degree programs for the fall semester must have completed high school or high school equivalent of all required courses. Required courses include three courses in the algebra through trigonometry sequence and one unit of biology and one unit of chemistry. If these courses are not completed, preparatory course work may be necessary at Penn State.

2. Have filed, by no later than early spring, a completed Admissions Application Form (preferably using the Web application provided at http://www.psu.edu/dept/admissions/) to Penn State. It is important that students maintain current local address information with the registrar's office at their campus of study.
Only students who meet required criteria will be considered for acceptance to an associate degree major.
All students who are not accepted to a major in this process should see an adviser regarding their future plans. Students not assigned to a major will not be allowed to register for classes as degree students, but may take courses as non-degree students.
