Although students enrolled in AAS programs are not required to meet all of the CUNY Pathways requirements, the college and program general education requirements are organized by Pathways categories to inform students of their standing should they transfer to a CUNY baccalaureate program. 2 Specific courses listed indicate double duty courses, i.e., program degree requirements that also meet general education requirements in that category. Students are not required to make that choice but should be advised that a different choice may result in additional credits being needed for graduation. 3 Students without the requisite math background for MATH 1375 will be required to take Mat 1175, and/ or 1275, depending upon initial math placement, in preparation. This will increase the number of required credits for the degree by 4-8 credits.
