Transfer Courses and Programs

Lamar State College Port Arthur offers general academic courses leading to Associate of Arts and Associate Arts in Teaching degrees. The courses in these degrees are designed to transfer to four-year institutions.

The College uses the Common Course Numbering System, which has been developed to help receiving institutions easily identify courses eligible for transfer and has overall improved the transfer of courses.

A student can complete two years of courses (core curriculum) to satisfy the majority of the course requirements for a bachelor’s degree. In most majors, a student can complete virtually all of his or her freshman and sophomore course work at LSCPA and be fully prepared to move into junior and senior level course work at a senior institution.
