Associate of Arts General Education
Certificates
Through the COA AA program, students can earn three general
education certificates, leading up to a full 2-year Associate of
Arts degree. As each student progresses through the courses, a
certificate is earned after 22 credits. At 12 credits a year, it
would take about 5 ½ years to earn the
Associates degree through the COA program.
The following courses comprise the
Associates of Art Degree. Upon meeting the requirements of each
“Certificate”, students will receive an official college
“Certificate of Completion”. Upon completion of all three
“Certificates”, students will be awarded an Associate of Arts
Degree. All courses offered in this degree program are
“University Level” and are “College Transferable” except for
MATH 113.
