Associate in Science Degree
The Associate in Science is designed for transfer towards specific science bachelor's degrees. The general education courses required for the Associate of Science degree are approved by the Illinois Articulation Initiative (IAI); however, the structure of the degree does not meet the minimum IAI general education core requirements. Students will need to complete the general education requirements of the school to which they transfer. Students considering this degree are encouraged to meet with an academic advisor to determine the most appropriate or required course selections for their transfer goals.
