NAU Transfer Plans are a unique tool designed to help guide your academic journey from community college to NAU. Choose an associate degree from your community college to transfer to Northern Arizona University’s Bachelor of Professional Studies (BPrS) – Hospitality Business Administration.

To be completed at the community college

  • Any Maricopa County Community College District (MCCCD) Associate degree, with AGEC
  • AGEC Requirements: Arizona General Education Curriculum (AGEC) serves as a key component of many community college programs in Arizona.

In some cases, the AGEC is embedded within Associate degree programs, and many degree-specific courses simultaneously satisfy AGEC criteria.
