Academic amnesty can be granted only once, is irrevocable, and applies to ALL 100-and 200-level courses in the entire term, no matter what the grade (A-F).

Since all amnesty designated grades remain on the student’s transcript, other educational institutions may consider all coursework listed on the transcript when a student transfers.

The coursework to be amnestied must have been taken at least five years previous to the time of the request. Example: a petition for courses taken in the fall semester of 2011 cannot be submitted until the end of the fall semester of 2016. This request can- not be processed if the student is indebted to the college in any way.

AGEC Block The Arizona General Education Curriculum (AGEC) is a block of 35 semester hours of lower division general education course work. Courses specific to this curriculum are listed in the degree and certificate information section of this catalog as the General Education Curriculum for AA, ABus and AS degree programs. The block can be completed by itself or as part of an associate’s degree at MCC. The college certifies completion of an AGEC on the student’s transcript when applied for by the student.

A completed AGEC will transfer as a block to any of the three Arizona public universities (NAU, ASU, and U of A). The AGEC will meet lower-division university general education requirements. To earn a baccalaureate degree, students transferring the AGEC must still meet other university requirements within their chosen major.
