Completion of this certificate provides students with a solid foundation of technical knowledge and hands-on skills in the field of ornamental horticulture. Graduates pursue entry-level positions in landscape maintenance, installation or the nursery industry.
Credit/Grade Requirements This Certificate requires successful completion of a minimum of 44.5 credits as outlined. A minimum of 30 credits or one-third of the required credits, whichever is less, must be earned at Edmonds Community College. Students are required to maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0 in all college-level courses.
Graduation Application A completed Graduation Application form must be submitted to Enrollment Services by the 10th day of the quarter in which the student expects to graduate. Forms are available online or at Enrollment Services located in Lynnwood Hall.
Students are advised to:
- Contact Enrollment Services to make an advising appointment and take the ACCUPLACER tests. Placement into BRDGE 093 or higher, as well as MATH 080 or higher is strongly recommended and may be required for some courses;
- Plan their schedule several quarters in advance in order to accommodate courses that are offered only once or twice a year, or those that may alternate between day and evening offerings from year to year;
- Review the college catalog for required course prerequisites and include these in schedule planning; and
- Meet quarterly with an adviser from the horticulture faculty to assure graduation as planned.
