Choose the Degree/Certificate Program In Which You Are Interested:
----------------------------------------------------------------------


Associate of Arts Degree (AA)

    If you plan to complete lower division work at a community college before transferring to a university, this degree is designed for you. GCC faculty and staff work closely with state universities to ensure maximum transfer of credits in transfer advisement programs.

Associate of General Studies Degee (AGS)

    This degree is recommended to students whose educational goals require flexibility and a broader choice of classes. The AGS degree program is less appropriate if you intend to transfer to a university.

Associate of Applied Degree (AAS)

    The AAS degree programs prepare students to immediately enter specific careers or occupations.   These career programs are not designed to transfer to a university, although individual courses may transfer.

Certificate of Completion

    Certificate programs require fewer courses than degree programs and are a good choice if you seek immediate entry into the work force or on-the-job advancement. Certificate programs can lead to an Associate of Applied Science Degree, but courses do not necessarily transfer to a university.
