Plan of Study 2018-2019
The following is a plan of requirements to complete this Associate of Applied Science degree in 3 years. Each student’s experience will vary slightly, as this plan does not include transfer work, Advanced Placement (AP), or other institutions’ concurrent enrollment credits. Math and English placement will be based on the student’s Accuplacer/ACT/SAT scores. If developmental courses are required, they should be taken in the student’s first semester.
NOTE: This plan assumes the student is prepared to take the courses listed. If prerequisites are required, additional semesters may be required to complete this degree.
Meet with the Academic Program Advisor and consult DegreeWorks for specific degree requirements.

Advising Notes
- The MA program starts a new cohort of 20 students every Fall, Spring, and Summer semesters. Students will take MA courses full-time. Students must complete the planned curriculum in sequential order without interruption. Attendance is mandatory for both theory and clinical sections. All MA clinical classes must be successfully completed at 80% or better and MA lecture classes must be successfully completed at 74% or better. Students are allowed two attempts for successful completion of the courses. All students in the MA program must complete a 200-hour practicum without pay after successful completion of all MA courses.
- Classes are integrated theory and practical. Students are required to pass both components to receive a grade for medical assistant classes.
- The student must complete all course competencies within the required time frame and at a specific degree of accuracy. If the student cannot pass all competencies required by the department, they will be asked to withdraw from the program.
- Students are allowed to take a course two times before they are asked to withdraw from the MA program.
- Students are required to successfully complete all courses before placement into the student’s practicum site.
