General Elective The remainder of the required credit hours must be made up of approved electives. In many cases the student may wish to study to prepare for transfer into specific subject area degree programs at four-year colleges and universities. By appropriate course selection in consultation with a faculty advisor, students pursuing the A.S. Liberal Arts and Sciences degree may prepare for transfer to upper-division study.

Students who are transferring to four-year institutions should follow the general education course requirements for transfer to SUNY and non-SUNY schools. View the general education requirements for more details.

**If this competency has been met before entering the program, the student must select at least 6 credit hours in other higher mathematics courses approved by their advisor.

To successfully complete the A.S. Liberal Arts and Sciences degree and transfer to an upper-division institution at full junior status in mathematics or the sciences may require the student to start at Finger Lakes Community College at the Pre-Calculus or Calculus level of Mathematics. High School students are encouraged to contact their guidance office and make use of the Mathematics Alert Program to become more familiar with the requirements in mathematics to pursue specific college degrees. If the student lacks sufficient mathematics and science preparation, the student may receive instruction at FLCC, but it may take more than two years to complete the A.S. Liberal Arts and Sciences degree.
