The Associate of Arts and Science degree program is designed for students who plan to transfer to four-year colleges or universities to complete baccalaureate degree programs. Whether students are undecided about their majors, or whether they plan to enter some specialized program, the flexibility of the electives within SVCC's university parallel program allows them to select courses to meet the transfer requirements of the senior institutions. For example, students interested in the following areas of study can spend their first two years of study at SVCC qualifying for an associate degree and generally transfer to a four year institution with junior class standing: business, education, english, humanities, mathematics, medical related fields, natural science and social sciences.
