Associate of Arts Degree

Associate of Arts Degree

Corpus Christi College grants an Associate of Arts Degree to students who successfully complete its two-year program of 64 credits, satisfying both CORE and ELECTIVE areas. This program is designed to develop in students the ability to think critically and communicate effectively. Our purpose is to enable students to pursue their academic, career and personal goals by equipping them with the tools they will need to succeed in an increasingly competitive, global economy. In addition, we seek to prepare young men and women to be reflective, articulate, life-long learners who are unafraid to take on the professional, social and spiritual challenges of the world.

To receive the Corpus Christi College Associate of Arts Degrees, all students must successfully complete a two-year program consisting of 64 credits, 18 of which must be at the 200 level and must be taken in two or more subject areas.
