PGCC Pathways Presentation (Academic Wellness Mini Session)

i listened to different experiences and possibilities after college

This mini sessions was very informative. I learned the difference between AS, AA and AAS.

This presentation made more knowledgeable about the different degrees. And how long they will take to complete

I learned the differences between AA, AS, and AAS degrees, and also certificate programs. AA and AS degrees are good if you want to transfer to a 4-year university. AAS degrees are better if you want to start working after finishing college. Certificate programs are shorter and help you learn specific job skills. I also learned about a website where I can check partner universities and see how my credits transfer. This session helped me understand my options and think about my future goals more clearly.

I learned about the differences between AA, AS, and AAS degrees, which helped me to better understand my academic path and future goals. I learned that an AA (Associate of Arts) is more focused on liberal arts and is typically designed for students who plan to transfer to a four-year university. An AS (Associate of Science) is similar but more focused on math and science fields. In contrast, an AAS (Associate of Applied Science) prepares students to enter the workforce directly after graduation, with fewer transfer opportunities. This helped me realize the importance of choosing the right program early on, depending on whether my goal is to transfer or start a career right away.

I learned about the differences between AA, AS, AAS, and certificates. And I was able to confirm that I was in the right pathway. Overall, this session helped me feel more prepared to transfer after I earn my associate's degree.

After attending the zoom session, I learned a lot about transferring. The most important thing for me is website where you can see the allied universities with PGCC and how easily you can transfer your credits.
