Fall 2010

School is now in its third week  Hard to believe!

During walk-in registration we registered slightly over 1,000 students.  Most of the students were registering for their general studies for an Associate of Arts degree.  This is a good time to mention that a student who has some idea of what he wants for the future probably needs to tell his advisor rather than just asking for his "generals."  There a very few general studies classes that absolutely everyone needs. 

Working on an Associate in Arts or Science means the "generals" will be completed by the student choosing which classes he wants to fulfill certain requirements. Some majors have specific requirements for the general studies classes and some do not. It's important to find out if the major one is interested in has specific requirements so those classes can be chosen for the Associate of Arts or Science degree.

It's not necessary to choose a major right away (and sometimes that's the BEST idea) but even if you have a rough idea of what you might like... maybe science or business or teaching... it's good to discuss this with your advisor so you can find out what is required and try some of the classes to see if you like them or not.

Your advisor is there to help guide you on the right path.  We like success!
