WHO SHOULD USE THIS ACADEMIC MAP

This academic map should be used by CSN students who are completing the Associate of Arts in Elementary Education at CSN AND PLAN TO TRANSFER TO NSU to complete a BA Elementary Education-Bilingual Education Major upon graduating from CSN.

HOW THIS ACADEMIC MAP IS SET UP

The academic map is set up to show students the ideal path to completing the degree in four (4) semesters. Students who cannot take the map’s recommended number of credits each semester will take longer to complete the degree, graduate and transfer.

CSN ASSOCIATE OF ARTS DESCRIPTION

An Academic Map suggests a schedule of courses based on degree requirements in the CSN catalog and serves as a general guideline to both help build a full schedule each semester and complete an Associate’s degree in two years or a Bachelor’s degree in four years. Some academic maps will serve as a guide for transfer offering both completion at CSN (first two years) and completion at another NSHE institution (second two years).

Students should regularly meet with their academic advisor to confirm their official degree plans, to determine how the academic map will best fit your needs, and to ensure applicable course selection and sequencing.These maps are not a substitute for academic advisement - contact your advisor if you have any questions about scheduling or about your degree requirements.
