Associate degrees at Colorado Mountain College require at least 60 credits. Most commonly, students finish in two years.
Associate of Arts (AA) and Associate of Science (AS) degrees, with emphasis areas, give students a solid, affordable start before transferring into CMC's Bachelor's degrees or to another college or university.
Associate of General Studies (AGS) degrees for students whose needs are not met by CMC's other degree programs. Students may design the Associate of General Studies degree to fit their personal needs, upgrade job skills, or prepare for professional school. This degree includes the Colorado Guaranteed Transfer Curriculum; however, the degree itself is not considered Guaranteed Transfer.
Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degrees, with emphasis areas, focus on knowledge and skills in one of many Career & Technical Education (CTE) areas. Students with an AAS degree can move on with CMC's Bachelor of Applied Science degree in Leadership and Management (BAS).
