Exercise and Sport Science and Health Promotion Transfer Guide for Students Pursuing an Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer Degree

The Associate of Arts (Oregon Transfer) degree is designed to allow you to complete the first two years of your studies at LBCC and transfer to a four-year college as a junior. Many courses meet the requirements of this degree, but some choices are better for Exercise and Sport Science students than others. Select your electives carefully to ensure that you take the prerequisites to upper-division courses, and meet with your advisor regularly. Classes that meet requirements for state universities are listed below. See your advisor if you wish to select classes within the AAOT for transfer to a specific institution. For students wanting to transfer to Oregon State University, you can also consider an AS degree in either EXSS or Health Promotion/or Management.
