Admissions
As MD
state schools become more competitive, students increasingly
look to MC as an opportunity to make their way to campuses. Generally, students who earn at least 30 credits
and have a 3.0 grade point average will be admitted to most
colleges regardless of high school record and SAT scores.
Other factors are important, of course, including courses
selected prior to transfer. That's why we emphasize
transfer planning with all incoming freshmen. Using
resources like ARTSYS, the MC Transfer Page and one-on-one
advising, transfer students can come up with a game plan
for success.

Why Else

Small
Class Sizes = Attention
from Caring Professors
MC
students have an opportunity to adjust to college level work
in smaller classes before transferring to a dynamic
university setting (where higher level classes are often
smaller than first and second year courses).

Transfer Students on Their Way
It sounds a little odd to
welcome students to campus and say in the same breath,
"Now where can we help you go from here?", but we
recognize that students want to work on the big
picture. Whether attending for one semester, one year
or two years toward an AA degree, MC students can find
expert help along the way to ensure that all courses
transfer smoothly. Here are links to some of our
transfer resources:

Spotlight on... UMBC's
New B.A. in Management of Aging Services
STARTING IN FALL 2006
Whether you want to help shape national policy,
create innovative businesses or make a difference personally, UMBC’s
new bachelor’s degree in Management of Aging Services will
prepare you for a career in one of the nation's fastest-growing
fields.
WHY MANAGEMENT OF AGING SERVICES?
As baby-boomers age, demand is mounting for people
to work in businesses, organizations and agencies serving mid-life and older adults in areas as
diverse as housing, health, transportation, finance and human resources. These are the careers of the
future.
HOW CAN THIS DEGREE HELP ME?
This pre-professional degree will prepare you for
entry-level positions in administration or management in:
• Local, state or federal government agencies
• Non-profit organizations and advocacy groups
(one of the fastest-growing employer groups)
• For-profit businesses
Job opportunities span a wide spectrum—community
planning and development, financial management, housing and heath policy analysis, seniors housing
and care administration, hospitality management and more.
WHY UMBC’S PROGRAM?
Employers have told us that they need students
with the right mix of skills. No other degree provides the integration of key knowledge and fundamental
skills offered by UMBC.
WHAT WILL I LEARN?
• Aspects of human aging: Social, psychological,
and physical aspects of aging • Foundations of human services:
Regulatory/policy/fiscal issues in providing services, legal and ethical aspects of practice, public and
private funding sources • Business basics: Accounting, management, human
resources and personnel issues, program evaluation • Practice skills: Effective communication,
critical thinking/problem-solving/negotiation skills, evaluation and assessment tools and technological
applications
The program also includes a supervised internship
and case-based capstone project.

Locally, the University of
Baltimore (UB) offers a bachelors degree in gaming.
UB has a large number of very generous transfer scholarships for
qualified students that pay 50%, 75%, even 100% of your tuition,
so be sure to contact UB to check those out!
Montgomery College and UB have a new
transfer agreement to ease the transfer process for game
degree students. Details will be posted here soon.
The Art Institute also offers
game-related programs, and many local Universities offer degrees
in Computer Science, Computer Graphics and other related
disciplines.

Thinking About Pre-Law, Pre-Medicine, Pre-Dentistry,
Pre-Pharmacy Pre-Physical Therapy, or Pre-Vet? |
Just what do you say
to students who ask about Pre-Law, Pre-Medicine, Pre-Dentistry,
Pre-Pharmacy, Pre-Physical Therapy, and Pre-Veterinary
Science? Answering questions for Pre- students can be
complicated. No longer are there specific majors in Pre-Law
and Pre-Medicine - schools generally allow students to major in
whatever they want, getting advising about course selections along
the way. One good place to steer students is into any
university's Pre-Law, etc. advising sites. Even if a student
is NOT UMCP-bound, the advising information on their site can be
applied to most schools. Steer pre-anything students into an
advising page at schools that interest them, or if they're
completely undecided, use UM or UMBC pages for more information.
