All new students pursuing an Associate of Arts (AA) degree starting in Fall 2014 will be required to meet the Foreign Language Competency Requirement in order to graduate with their AA degree. This degree requirement can be met by 2 years of the same high school foreign lan- guage OR 2 semesters of college level foreign language OR documented proficiency of a foreign language. If you did not take 2 years of the same high school foreign language and do not have documented proficiency of a foreign language, you will need to register for 2 semesters of col- lege level foreign language in order to graduate. These foreign language credits will count towards your required University Transfer Program Prerequisites/Elective Credit Hours. Please check with your Academic Advisor if you are unsure whether you already meet this requirement.

Not all college credit courses may be used to fulfill the 24 credit hours of university transfer program prerequisites/electives. Only those courses marked with “u” in the course description section of this cata- log may be used to fulfill the Associate in Arts elective requirement. Students should choose their elective courses carefully, using the elective hours to satisfy the program prerequisites or course requirements for a specific baccalaureate degree. To ensure accuracy in selecting courses, students should refer to the Common Prerequisite Manual available on- line at FLVC.org (select “Student Services,” then select “Common Pre- requisite Manual”).

The A.S. degree program encompasses courses in two basic ar- eas. One area is specialized courses, which provide specific training in a program of study. The second major area of courses is general education. General education courses are designed to help develop a well-rounded individual and enhance employment potential.
Although an Associate in Science degree program is intended primarily to prepare an individual to enter a chosen career or profes- sion, it may also transfer to a senior institution which offers a bach- elor’s degree in a related field.
The following programs have established transfer agreements to designated baccalaureate degree programs: business administra-
tion, criminal justice technology, nursing, and radiologic technol- ogy. See the program description for further details. In addition, an articulation agreement has been developed with Flagler College for the criminal justice technology, emergency medical service and fire science technology programs and the University of Central Florida for Health Information Technology.
