Pre-Major Agreements and Study Tracks

Pre-major agreements and locally developed study tracks for certain areas of study are available for distribution to students. Copies of the agreements can be found in the White Building, room 49 and in the Phillips Building, room 313.

The pre-major agreements have been developed through negotiations between the university system and the community college faculty and then were made specific for Durham Tech students. They serve as a blueprint for guiding community college students in selecting courses appropriate to their selected major. Students who successfully complete the courses of study as defined by the pre-major agreements and who meet the requirements for admission to the university are eligible to apply for admission to the major with junior standing. These agreements are meant as a guide. The student should not assume that it addresses unique requirements set by his or her university of choice. It is the student’s responsibility to become aware of individual requirements of the senior institution.

Also available are study-tracks. A study-track is a listing of courses that either the faculty at Durham Tech recommends as appropriate for a pre-professional degree or has been developed in collaboration with a particular college.
