Associate of Arts

The requirements for the Associate of Arts (AA) degree online degree completion program are designed to reflect Wesleyan’s commitment to the liberal arts. All students seeking this degree will explore a diversity of course offerings intended to provide breadth while also allowing the student a great opportunity to organize their elective studies around their fields of immediate interest.

The AA degree prepares students to enter fields which require more coursework than a high school diploma alone and serves as a steppingstone to bachelor’s programs. The Wesleyan AA requires that students take extra credit hours in History, Philosophy, Modern Language, or Religion establishing a curriculum which will broaden the student’s coursework over more disciplines.
