The Associate of General Studies Degree provides a flexible option for students who wish to combine coursework in several areas of interest. Students can design a program of study around their interests by selecting a variety of courses in one or more areas.

The Associate of General Studies degree is especially designed for those students who have gained significant learning through their life/work experience, but who may benefit from an individually planned course of study based on their academic or occupational interest. The degree offers students maximum flexibility to design a program of study around their interests, using CCC courses, transfer credits and cooperative education, and courses accepted through one of the testing options as listed in this catalog under Credit by Examination.

More information about the Associate of General Studies degree is available in the Academic Advising Office.
