    Guttman: Liberal Arts to Baruch: Public Affairs

    2 + 2 Degree Map

    The Liberal Arts major at Guttman Community College offers the best pathway to transfer to Baruch College and complete the BS degree in Public Affairs.
    The 2 + 2 degree map (2 years at Guttman and then 2 years at Baruch) is a term-by-term sample course schedule designed to make it easier for you to navigate your time at Guttman and then transfer to Baruch College.  This is just an example path from Guttman to Baruch so please consult your academic advisor along with Degreeworks and the CUNY Transfer Explorer tool to make sure you are on track in your major.
