General Studies

The general studies transfer programs are designed to prepare students to transfer to a four-year college or university. While pursuing a liberal arts background, general studies students also have an opportunity to explore an occupational area through their electives. To ensure maximum transferability, students should familiarize themselves with the program requirements of the institution to which they plan to transfer.

The associate degree program is designed for students to enter a fouryear college or university as juniors. At least 60 credit hours are needed to obtain an associate of arts degree. The certificate program requires 30 credit hours of course work, and is designed for students who want to enter a four-year college or university at the sophomore level.

For additional information about the general studies program, contact Elaine Vander Clute, Arts and Humanities Department Head.
