What is an Associate of Arts?

An Associate of Arts degree provides a liberal arts education covering a variety of subjects including mathematics, literature, history, psychology and economics. It is generally used as a stepping-stone to further education such as a bachelor's degree, but could also be used to seek employment after graduation.

In most cases, an associate degree will allow you to enter the third year of a four-year bachelor’s degree program. To make sure your courses transfer, use the BC Transfer Guide as it has all the up-to-date information you'll need to plan your education.
