Associate of Arts - Transfer Degree - World Languages

With an Associate of Arts (A.A.) degree Direct Transfer Agreement (D.T.A.), students will meet the general education course requirements for most arts and sciences bachelor’s degrees.

The world languages program at Seattle Central provides the opportunity for students intending to transfer to a four–year college or university as well as community members to begin study of languages and cultures. World language courses address speaking, listening comprehension, reading, and writing.

Cultural study emphasizes the naturally global and multicultural perspectives inherent in the study of world languages. Students who continue their language studies are well-prepared when they transfer to destination institutions. Many students also decide to volunteer, travel or work in countries where the language is spoken and find that they are able to communicate successfully.

Applicants may choose to transfer their degree internally or through other external institutions. Seattle Colleges has an agreement with the following institutions where students may choose to transfer with conditional admission: • Arizona State University • City University of Seattle • Eastern Washington University • Embry Riddle Aeronautical University • Montana State University • San Francisco State University • Seattle Pacific University • State University of New York, Oswego • Washington State University • Western Washington University
