Major Related Program (MRP) degrees build on the more generic Direct Transfer by Agreement (DTA) degree for students in the arts, humanities and social sciences, and the Associate in Science (AS-T) degree for students in engineering and science-based fields. For details on each of these degrees, see the 2007-09 LCC Catalog.
Two-year and four-year colleges worked together to create these new degrees. Four-year colleges agreed on what they would accept, and the two-year colleges are adding or changing courses as needed.

Be sure to consult advisors at LCC (and your transfer institution if you know where you will be transferring) to be sure which MRP will meet your goals. If you change from an MRP to a different degree, you may need additional course work to fulfill degree requirements. You should also try to complete sequence courses within one institution.
