Associate in Arts Degree Tracks

An Indian River State College Associate in Arts (A.A.) Degree provides you with a quality education at a fraction of the cost of a public college or private university. That’s because A.A. Degree students complete their freshman and sophomore years of study at IRSC—which includes 36 credit hours of general education and 24 credit hours of electives—and upon degree completion can choose to continue their education locally by enrolling at one of the more than 20 Bachelor's Degree programs offered at Indian River State College or transferring as a junior to a Florida university.

When you graduate from Indian River State College with an A.A. degree, your diploma with say Associate in Arts. Even though you’ll have picked a specialization, or ‘transfer track,’ so you are prepared for your upper division coursework, IRSC doesn’t identify this as an individual ‘major’. There is just one A.A. degree.

It is essential  that students in the A.A. degree program choose electives that satisfy requirements for their intended transfer major. Your assigned advisor can help you create a personalized academic plan which outlines the right classes to take each semester so that you have a smooth and successful transfer.
