REDDING » In a continu- ing effort to help students transfer to CSUs in a va- riety of disciplines, Shasta College has added five As- sociate Degrees for Trans- fer to the eight existing this year. Degrees available for Fall 2014 are Administration of Justice; Business Admin - istration; Communication Studies; Early Childhood Education; English; Kine- siology; Music; Philosophy; Physics; Psychology; So- ciology; Studio Arts; The- atre Arts. Each has 60 units and contains all the lower di- vision general education courses that a student will need entering a CSU. After completing an ADT, a student will receive priority admission to a CSU in a similar program and will enter as a junior. The goal is to decrease the time needed for trans - fer students from Shasta to complete related four-year degrees. Daniel Valdivia, transfer counselor at Shasta College, said, "The ADT degree is a great option for students who are interested in trans - ferring to one of the 23 cam- puses in the CSU system. It guarantees that students who complete an ADT de- gree from Shasta College will be admitted to a CSU campus." In addition, Shasta Col - lege is adding full-time fac- ulty in some of the areas that have ADTs, such as Psychology and Adminis- tration of Justice. More fac- ulty will enable the college to offer additional sections of the courses students need to complete the ADTs. Orientations for Fall 2014 are taking place now at Shasta College and gen - eral registration begins on June 2. Summer registra- tion begins April 9 for new students.
