Completion of the A.A.S. in Cybersecurity as described in this guide leads to junior standing in the B.S. in Cybersecurity at Chestnut Hill College.

Chestnut Hill College is a Dual Admissions partner and the A.A.S. in Cybersecurity degree qualifies for the Chestnut Hill College Dual Admissions Agreement. A grade of “C” or higher is needed for courses to transfer. Completion of the A.A.S. in Cybersecurity leads to junior standing in the B.S. in Cybersecurity at Chestnut Hill College. 

Students who earn the A.A.S. in Cybersecurity qualify for benefits of core-to-core at Chestnut Hill College. Through this, Chestnut Hill College agrees to accept the General Education embedded in Community College of Philadelphia’s Associate in Arts (A.A.), Associate in Science (A.S.) and approved Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) degrees as meeting all the requirements of its undergraduate General Education requirements except for nine credits (six in religious studies and three in a global seminar).
