General Studies Programs

The Associate in General Studies degree is an attractive alternative for students to explore a range of subject areas without concentrating on any particular one or who are undecided about future educational or career goals. The program requires successful completion of a total of 60 semester hours of general education and elective courses with a cumulative grade point average of AC@ (2.00), in addition to the student having satisfied the Constitution requirement. The AGS is neither a transfer nor a career entry degree. While other colleges may accept credit earned toward this degree, no articulation agreements guaranteeing that the student will enter a Bachelor’s Degree program with junior standing has been established.
