Accelerated General Studies Degree
Begins Fall 2010
The Accelerated General Studies Degree program is designed for working adults who wish to pursue higher education. Just two evenings per week for two years will earn you an associate’s degree in general studies that could be the foundation for a four-year degree or used to improve your employment opportunities.
The General Studies (A.A.) degree allows you to transfer to a four-year institution with maximum transfer of credit.
Program Schedule
This schedule allows you to balance your professional, academic and personal life. The class size is limited to 22 which allows for a high faculty-to-student ratio and opportunities for networking. Students start as a cohort or group and continue through the program together. The entire program is structured so that students graduate in approximately 26 months.
