Social Science & Business Programs
The selection of courses and course sequences depends largely upon a student’s career
choice. Counselors, instructional administrators and faculty advisor are available
to counsel with each student, but it is the student’s final responsibility to choose
her or his own course of study. Each of EMCC’s three Academic Divisions provides students
ample opportunity to select coursework that will lead to an Associate of Arts Degree
that prepares them for transfer to a university.
What this means: If you plan to attend a senior college after EMCC, and already know
what field you want to major in, we can recommend classes to take at EMCC that will
be most useful to you.

East Mississippi Community College has designed its basic course requirements so that
earned credits can be transferred readily to other accredited institutions. It should
be clearly understood, however, that senior colleges and professional schools may
have individual freshman and sophomore requirements which differ from the following
course recommendations. Students contemplating transfer should consult the latest
catalog of the institution to which they plan to transfer or, better yet, speak with
a counselor at the transfer institution of your choice.
If the senior institution requires an arrangement of courses different from any recommended
in this section, students may deviate and schedule an arrangement to meet their individual
need with their advisor’s authorization.
