Approved Elective Course List for AS Degrees and Course of Study

Approved Elective Course List for AS Degrees

Electives are select courses you can choose as a part of your degree path, allowing you to study topics that interest you. Electives, when added to your core course requirements for your chosen major or course of study, make up the total number of credits needed to complete your degree. If you follow the degree specifications and graduate with an Associates of Science before transferring to a Colorado 4-year public university, you will be enrolled with a junior status at the university and will be able to complete the bachelor’s degree with no more than an additional 60 credits (for a total of 120 credits). If you transfer before completing the degree, check with your destination institution to find out which credits they will accept. If the courses you select are GT Pathway courses they are guaranteed to transfer to any Colorado 4-year public university.  

Twenty-one (21) credits must be selected from the following list of Mathematics and Science courses to complete the Associate of Science Degree. Up to three credits can be selected from the Associate of Arts Approved Electives list.
