to earn a degree.
You may use the following guide to choose courses at Asnuntuck Community College (ACC) which would fulfill
the Common Core at WSU.
Please consult the WSU bulletin to see if there are specific courses that are required for your intended major
which would also fulfill the Common Core : http://www.westfield.ma.edu/uploads/registrar/bulletin.pdf
