Students who desire to earn a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree at a
four-year college or university may complete the first two years of study at Roane State
by enrolling in an Associate of Arts or Associate of Science degree program. The advantages
of taking the first two years at Roane State include:
• Roane State’s maintenance fees are among the lowest of any fees charged by
Tennessee’s colleges and universities.
• Roane State’s class enrollments are generally smaller which lends itself to more
individualized instruction.
• Obtaining an Associate of Arts or Associate of Science degree allows a student
to have credentials for employment while completing his/her baccalaureate degree.
