There is a disadvantage in that this is not a directly transferrable degree. If the student is not admitted to the university of choice, or if the student changes intended major, there could be a shortage of the right distribution of credits for an Option A degree or for an efficient transfer. Transfer with an Option A degree ensures acceptance at many universities with a much lower GPA than an Option B degree, however entry into many science majors is competitive and a high GPA may be required. An option A degree will also fulfill general education requirements for most universities. Many courses are sequential and a careful selection of classes each quarter is needed to complete the program without delay.
Some programs require additional prerequisites.
