Associate of General Studies Degree (AGS)
The Associate of General Studies (AGS) degree is a flexible program designed for students who want to build a broad base of college-level coursework. The AGS includes general education and elective courses that may be tailored to a student’s individual interests, goals, or prior credits.
The AGS is often a good option for students who are exploring academic or career pathways, pursuing a specific area of interest, or looking for a customizable degree option. Courses in the AGS may include a combination of transfer and career-technical coursework, depending on the student’s plan.
Because the AGS is highly flexible and not designed as a direct transfer pathway, students who may be considering transfer are strongly encouraged to work with an academic advisor and their intended transfer institution early. This helps ensure that course selections align with specific university and major requirements.
Associate of General Studies programs offered at MHCC:
- Health Professions Exploration
- Music
