The Associate of Arts and the Associate of Arts in Teaching degrees are designed to transfer to a four-year institution. The Associate of Applied Science Degree is designed to prepare you to enter the workforce after graduation.

Although acceptance of credit is at the discretion of the transfer school, Three Rivers has articulation agreements facilitating transfer.
