Introduction
The Associate of Arts (AA) program is a two-year college program that requires college admission. It is the equivalent of the first two years of a Bachelor's degree. It is also referred to as a general education transfer degree. Completing an AA indicates that the student has completed a course of study equivalent to the first two years of a Bachelor's degree. Associate of Arts degrees do not officially include a major or minor course of study; however, in consultation with an advisor, students' course selection is guided by their planned baccalaureate major.
Students may also accumulate credits to transfer to another college or university. Bitterroot College offers all the courses required to satisfy the Montana University System (MUS) Transfer Core Curriculum (30-semester credits). All MUS institutions will accept the MUS Transfer Core to satisfy their lower-division general education requirements.
