The Next Step is Yours ..…

Community colleges throughout Illinois have developed programs that also integrate union apprenticeship training and general studies coursework into an Associate in Applied Science degrees (AAS). An AAS degree can be transferred to SIUC to create a very efficient 2+2 baccalaureate degree path.

Graduates of AAS degree programs may qualify for SIUC’s Capstone option, which reduces the University Core Curriculum (UCC) general eduation requirements from 41 to 30 hours, allowing most transfer students to complete the dgree requirements in 60 credit hours.
