Collin College provides general academic courses and electives for students who plan to transfer to a college or university. Because of the various transfer requirements at colleges and universities, and to ensure enrollment in appropriate courses, students should verify course transferability and degree applicability with a Collin College academic advisor and/or the college or university that they plan to attend.

To earn an associate degree, complete the 42 credit hour General Education Core, and 18 credit hours of general studies electives and the Associate of Arts (AA) or Associate of Science (AS) degree requirements.

Check with your transfer institution before registering for general studies electives to make sure your courses will be degree applicable to your bachelor’s degree at the transfer institution.

Learn how to communicate effectively with an audience, in small groups, or one-on-one with a degree or certificate from Collin College’s Communication Field of Study (FOS). Whether you hope to pursue a degree in a communication, embark on a career that requires strong communication skills, or want to develop and maintain strong relationships personally and professionally, courses in Collin College’s Communication FOS can provide you with a great foundation.
