The state Legislature has established a core curriculum of general education subjects that serve as the foundation for both the two-year associate degree and four-year bachelor’s degree. Students routinely devote their first two years in college to completing the core curriculum before moving into studies in their selected major. You can complete your entire core curriculum at ACC and then transfer the entire block to any public four-year college or university.
