Two degrees are offered at ATI, an Associate of Science and an Associate of Applied Science. The Associate of Science is designed to be a transfer program to the Bachelors degree offered at OSU in Columbus and the Associate of Applied Science is designed as a terminal degree with employment at graduation. As a result, applicability of credits is greater when following an Associate of Science degree than with the Associate of Applied Science. To determine how your coursework will transfer from ATI to Columbus , go to the OSU Course Applicability System (CAS) website. Please be aware that while all credits will transfer, except for remedial Math and English, not all credits may be applicable toward the completion of your degree program at OSU Columbus if you are following the Associate of Applied Science. We encourage you to complete your Associate Degree at ATI before transferring, if possible.

  

Students who are interested in transferring to Columbus into the College of FAES should contact Dr. Jill A. Pfister, Assistant Dean of Academic Affairs. She can be reached at (614) 292-1734 or pfister.1@osu.edu . Dr. Pfister visits ATI quarterly and her appointment schedule is handled by Jill Gallion ( gallion.9@osu.edu). You should notify Dr. Pfister at least two quarters in advance of the quarter you desire to transfer to Columbus . She will assist you in completing an Intra-University Transfer, which changes your campus of enrollment as well as your major.

  The Admissions Office will make the final decision on your transfer. Criteria for admission as a transfer student can be found at http://undergrad.osu.edu/admissions/trcriteria.asp . Please become familiar with these criteria as well as the admission requirements of the specific enrollment unit in Columbus which offers the major that you are intending to pursue. If you are interested in a major in the College of Food , Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences (CFAES) and you are admissible to OSU Columbus Campus, then you are also admissible to the College of Food , Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences.

Dr. Pfister will assist you in the transition to OSU Columbus as well as helping you determine how your credits will be applied to your degree. Please realize that there are two types of courses offered at ATI. There are courses with a "T" prefixing (i.e. Animal Tec. T210) and courses with no prefix (i.e. Math 148). The courses with no prefix are the same as OSU Columbus courses, therefore grades and credits move with you to the Columbus campus. Courses with a "T" prefix are treated as transfer credit. A grade of at least a C- must be earned for the course to transfer, unless you complete an Associate of Science degree, in which case grades of D or D+ will transfer. Because these courses are treated as transfer credit, the grades in the courses with a "T" prefix do not impact your OSU Columbus grade point average, only the hours transfer and equivalencies if available.
