Where does my path start?
There are two paths to transfer for this major depending on your personal preferences:
A) A highly prescribed degree plan using Associate in Computer Science, DTA/MRP Planning Guide.
B) A more general Associate degree using the Associate of Arts - Direct Transfer Agreement (AA-DTA) with a Computer Science and Software Systems concentration.
Use the Associate in Arts, AA-DTA Planning Guide with the information below, or the Associate in Computer Science, DTA/MRP Planning Guide to understand the requirements for graduation.
Once you complete your Shoreline degree, you can transfer to a four-year school to earn a baccalaureate degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
