The General Studies Certificate provides students with a general foundation course
of study that can be used to transfer into a baccalaureate degree program or used
for the associate degree program. This certificate will allow students to obtain recognition
for completing a minimum set of general education courses while also allowing for
easier transfer to four year institutions that may recognize and accept general education
certificates. Students pursuing an associate degree should refer to the curriculum
guide for the program of choice for appropriate course selection.
Successful completion of this program qualifies a student to apply for a certificate
in General Studies.
