Program of Study

An Associate of Arts (AA) Degree is a two-year program that provides a general liberal arts education. An AA degree helps students gain useful career skills and is also designed to serve as a stepping stone into a bachelors program at a four-year college or university. 

To make an informed selection of Arts and Humanities, Social Science, and Natural Science electives, Terra State advises the transfer-intending student to consult the receiving institution to ensure maximum transferability and application of credits.

Note:


Additional elective hours may be taken from any Terra State program or discipline to combine with the above requirements to complete a degree with at least 60, but not greater than 65 semester hours.
