Sample Schedule

The schedule below shows how the requirements for the A.A. Liberal Arts and Science degree with an advisement area for transfer in Social Science may be met in four semesters. Please check with your transfer institution with regard to specific courses and requirements. This schedule is an example of one of many possible schedules that might be followed by a full-time student. Many students attending Finger Lakes Community College who have work and/or family obligations choose a different sequence of courses and take more than four semesters to fulfill the requirements for the degree.
