What is a student's commitment?
Plans of Study
Plans of Study are degree guides to inform students and advisors about specific degree requirements to assist with appropriate course selection and to develop academic plans. Each plan will prepare students to start at CBC and finish at WSU Tri-Cities with a bachelor's degree.
Meeting with Advisors
It is required that students first meet with a CBC advisor to discuss program options and course selection at CBC. After the selection of a degree program, the student will be referred to the appropriate WSU Tri-Cities advisor.
It is recommended that you meet with your WSU Tri-Cities advisor at least twice a year to verify degree program progress; this is critical as admission and degree requirements are subject to change.
