General education classes

If you earn an AAOT degree or an ASOT-B degree from OCCC, you will have finished your general education requirements at WOU. If you transfer without a transferable degree, you can check course-by-course to see how your general education classes will transfer:

·       Look up how classes will transfer in WOU’s transfer articulation system.

·       WOU’s general education is called the Liberal Arts Core Curriculum (LACC).
