Begin here, GO anywhere

The Associate in Arts degree (university transfer degree) is designed for students who wish to earn a bachelor's degree and transfer into the State University System as a junior.
Attend fulltime, part time, on campus or online*!

Begin here, STAY here

Upon completion of the A.A. Degree, many students choose to remain at SJR State to pursue one of our bachelor's degrees.

Skills, skills, skills ...

Want to be ready for the workforce in two years or less, in areas such as nursing/health care, criminal justice, or computer technology? Check out our Workforce programs.

Spend less ... Earn more

SJR State costs nearly HALF the amount of universities and private colleges! There is a greater demand for educated workers. The many desirable jobs of tomorrow will require an education beyond high school. The right education and skills will better position you to land those jobs and enjoy pay gains.

THIS is where it starts!

You don't have to have it all figured out to begin making plans for your future. While some students will tell you that selecting a career path was an obvious choice, others need more time to explore their options. Either way, we're here to help you make real choices about your future, your way.
