The Associate in Arts (A.A.) program is included in the agreement between North Carolina’s community colleges and its four-year colleges and universities. It is designed to provide students with an opportunity to take the first two years of a four-year program in many majors.

College transfer programs such as the Associate in Arts are designed to assist your transition towards a Bachelor’s degree, not necessarily into a job. Students completing the AA, but do not transfer, may find work in a variety of settings.

If your plan is to transfer to a four-year college or university, you’ll get many of your prerequisites out of the way, while allowing you to develop self-discipline and study skills in a nurturing environment.

Upon successful completion of the Associate in Arts, Associate in Science or Associate in General Education, the student should be able to:

  1. Communicate effectively.
  2. Think critically.
  3. Demonstrate information literacy.
  4. Demonstrate interdependence.

*NOTE: Students cannot take both BIO 110  and BIO 111 ; it is recommended that students take one life (BIO) and one physical (CHM or PHY) science
