The Associate of Arts degree in general studies program is recommended for students who have not decided upon a particular field of study or who have identified a transfer institution for which a curriculum needs to be tailored to a particular transfer curriculum. Additionally, the general studies curriculum is designed to allow a maximum level of flexibility for students to change majors, either to a transfer program or an occupational program with a minimum loss of credits.
Also, the program, through its structure, will assist students in making informed decisions concerning their educational goals. Students completing this program will have a solid educational foundation to transfer to another institution to complete their baccalaureate degree or to enter the world of work.
