EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS


Certificate Programs

A short-term program (usually one to four semesters for full-time students) in an occupational, technical, or business field.  Certificate programs focus almost exclusively on preparing you for a specific occupation or area of employment.  Few courses outside of the major field are required.  Refer to the College Catalog for specific requirements. If you have questions or need assistance you will want to speak with a counselor and visit the Career Center.

Associate in Arts (A.A.), Associate in Science (A.S.)
An associate degree is the first college degree you can earn, and it signifies the completion of 60 semester units of college work in general education courses (G.E.) and courses required for your major.  Associate in Science degrees are awarded for occupational and technical majors and the math/science major.  The Associate in Arts degree is awarded for Liberal Arts and Fine Arts majors.  Refer to the College Catalog for a list of associate degree majors.  If you have questions or need assistance you will want to visit the Counseling Office to talk with a counselor.


Transfer Program

At Victor Valley College you may complete your first two years of university work required for a bachelor's degree (four-year college degree) and transfer as a junior to four-year college/university.  You may transfer with or without an associate degree.   If you need help deciding where to transfer or if you need help understanding transfer requirements, visit the Transfer Center or the Counseling Office.
