Associate in General Studies – LIB.AGS.L03<br />
The Associate in General Studies is a degree that is customized to meet the unique needs of students whose<br />
objectives cannot be met through the college’s transfer or occupational degrees. This degree is designed to meet<br />
the students’ objectives such as obtaining a two year liberal education or meeting employment needs not offered<br />
through other programs. Because the curriculum for the General Studies degree is not part of the Illinois<br />
Articulation Initiative (see Page 36), transfer course credits completed within this degree are not guaranteed to<br />
be accepted by the senior institution. Students considering the General Studies degree should consult with an<br />
adviser to determine whether this degree will meet their educational goals and needs.<br />
