The educational goal of Mashdots
College is to provide maximum opportunities for educational and
personal growth; the student's goals and objectives are considered
first in evaluating applicants for admission. Consideration will be
given to previous formal and informal educational experience, and to
the potential to succeed in an academic program. Mashdots College
seeks students who are creative, motivated, self-disciplined, and
committed to learning.
In keeping with the above
philosophy, the admission is made with emphasis placed on cumulative
GPA, academic course of study, SAT or ACT scores, applicant
statements, and personal recommendations. In cases where the
applicant falls below a B average and / or below acceptable test
scores, the faculty Admissions Committee is consulted.
Admissions to the Bachelor of
Arts Degree in Armenian Studies require completion of 60 semester or
90 quarter transfer units with at least a "C" average. The
College offers lower and upper-division courses in Armenian
Studies.
