If your educational goals include a broad range of transfer and occupational interests, the AGS generalist degree allows you to pursue those interests without the constraints of specialization. However, transferability of this degree depends upon the courses you take and the requirements of the institution to which you transfer. If you complete the requirements listed below, you will receive an AGS degree with no major field specified on your transcript.

Requirements for the AGS degree include the following:

• Minimum of 60 semester hours of course work
• Cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher 
• No more than 30 credit hours of vocationally prefixed courses
• Minimum of 30 general education transferable credits. Fifteen of the 30 semester hours of general education must be in the Colorado Statewide Guaranteed Transfer Courses (GT Pathways) Curriculum
• Minimum of 15 graded semester hours earned at PCC
• Minimum grade of “C” in the 30 credits of general education courses
• Computer competency: CIS 110 or equivalent

To earn an AGS generalist degree, you must complete at least 60 college-level credits, broken down as follows:

I. 30 credits - General Education Courses
II. 30 credits - Vocational or Academic Electives

Developmental courses are not included in these credits. Developmental courses are courses in reading, mathematics, and English that you may have to take before enrolling in college level courses.
