AAS is designed for you to go straight into the work force. It’s a foot into the door but if you plan on transferring it’s not easy to do.

In this session the coordinators went into detail what the difference between all the degrees that PGCC offers. I appreciated the fact that they went in depth because it helped me choose what path to take for my future and dream goals.

This mini-session was very important and helpful. I can now distinguish the difference between A.S. and A.A.S. This helps my pathway because I can decide what I want to do after PGCC. Additionally, Ms. Carter shared important information about universities that accept A.A.S.

I have learned more about AA, AS, and AAS degree types and what their purposes are. I got to learn more about my type of associate's degree which is an AA degree and gave me a refresh on what I can do with my associate's. I also learned that I can certifications along with or after my associate's.
