B. A. in Adventure Education • Degree Planner

Important Information:

1.In order to enroll in any Adventure Education course, except AE 230, you must be a declared Adventure Education major or minor.

2.Application to AE Major: Once you complete a minimum of 6 credits in Adventure Education, including AE 101 plus one AE skills and management course, you must apply for admission to the Adventure Education major to continue taking AE courses. Admission to continue requires a minimum 2.5 cumulative GPA and 2.5 AE GPA, an application form, current professional resume, and two professional references.

3.Transfer students: The AE degree may be completed in four semesters if you have successfully completed the AA or AS degree of 60 credits, including specified AE transfer courses (see catalog transfer map to graduation). Without the specified AE transfer courses, the degree will take a minimum of six semesters. The AE immersion semester requires enrollment in AE 201, AE 210, and AE 220 in the same fall semester, along with two other AE courses—AE 230 and AE 251. AE 201, AE 210, and AE 220 must be taken together; they cannot be completed separately. Therefore, transfer students entering the program with one or two, but not all three of these courses, will need to still take all courses in the immersion semester, which may result in non-acceptance of some transfer credit.
