Chart your way to a brighter tomorrow.

STEP is your path to an Associate of Arts in General Studies, designed to help working adults meet their goals. The program is tailored to fit an accelerated associate degree into a busy working schedule. Adults working full-time, who may not have any previous college credits or who have a limited number of transferable credits, are perfect candidates for this program.

This accelerated degree program is designed to be completed in just two years and consists of four progressive steps, incorporating courses in mathematics, English, business, and the humanities. Students receive an Associate of Arts degree after completing 60 credit hours. Our students also have the option of completing their bachelor’s degree by taking required courses in the STEP program and any remaining credits for a total of 126 credit hours.
