This program is for students who want to transfer to a participating Washington State four-year college or university. The Business DTA/MRP meets all requirements of Washington’s Direct Transfer Agreement, between the baccalaureate institutions offering a bachelor of science or bachelor of arts in business administration including accounting, management, and management information systems and the community and technical college system. The program consists of 90 college-level credits. At least 60 of these credits are general education in areas like communication, mathematics, humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences. When you finish your Business DTA/MRP, if you are admitted to a four-year degree program, you will have junior standing.
