AALT-AALT - Louisiana Transfer Degree, Associate of Arts

The Louisiana Transfer (LT) Associate Degree is designed to provide students with an opportunity to complete the first 60 hours of coursework toward a baccalaureate degree at a 2-year or community college. LT graduates are eligible to enter a 4-year Louisiana public university as a junior, with all 60 (non-developmental) credits transferring to the receiving university. The Transfer Degree Guarantee (TDG) refers to a guaranteed and easy transfer for students from a 2-year community college to a public university in Louisiana. Students may complete either an Associate of Arts (AALT) or Associate of Science (ASLT), depending on their interests and aspirations for further study and a bachelor’s degree. It is the student’s responsibility to choose courses that will maximize preparation for the university major, so it is important for students to do some research and seek advice when designing their LT degree. See below for the eight LT concentration templates designed to lead into a bachelor’s degree curriculum. Each consists of a 39-hour General Education block and 21-hours of additional coursework related to the prospective major. Students must complete the degree with a grade of “C” or better in each course. Students learn comprehensive subject matter that includes but is not limited to: Biological Sciences Fine Arts Humanities Physical Sciences Social/Behavioral Sciences Criminal Justice General Business Mass Communication
