Biology (Integrative & Organismal)

Transfer Pathways provides you with the opportunity to complete your associate’s degree from the University of Hawaii Community College (UHCC) system, then transfer to Chaminade University and continue your studies to earn your bachelor’s degree. The pathway makes the transfer process easier—you’ll enter Chaminade University with a junior-year status and all courses in the Transfer Pathway associate degree will directly transfer and be applied toward your bachelor’s degree requirements.
