Students completing this associate degree will have completed lower-division major preparation requirements for a theatre arts degree, an emphasis or option within a theatre arts degree, or a degree considered like theatre arts at a participating California State University (CSU) campus. Following transfer to a participating CSU campus, students will be required to complete no more than 60 units to obtain a bachelor鈥檚 degree; however, some CSU campuses accepting this degree may require additional lower-division major preparation.

Students should consult with a MiraCosta counselor for further information regarding the most efficient pathway to transfer as a theatre art major and to determine which CSU campuses are participating in this program.
