Completion of the A.A. as described in this guide leads to junior standing in the B.S. at West Chester University.
Students who earn the A.A. in Business-General at Community College of Philadelphia qualify for the benefits of core-to-core under what West Chester University calls "Academic Passport."

Core-to-core transfer does not alter the requirements of the student's major field of study.
