Degree/Elective Information
At Front Range Community College, students may take classes to earn an Associate degree or a Certificate from among more than 100 areas. Credits from the State Guaranteed Education Courses are guaranteed to transfer to Colorado’s public four-year institutions. Students may also take classes individually for their enrichment, or career development.
Career and Technical Education (CTE) AAS degree & certificate course requirements are subject to change due to Colorado Community College System mandated renewal cycles and program revisions. These program revisions are necessary to align with course changes in the Colorado Community College System (CCCS) Common Course Numbering System (CCNS) and/or updated state or national accreditation standards specific to program content. A list of these accrediting agencies is available under the FRCC Program Accreditation section in this catalog. The archived PDF version of this catalog will not contain these updates. To verify the most accurate certificate and AAS degree requirements, please review DegreeCheck in the eWOLF Student Dashboard or view your program MAP listed by Career and Academic Community by clicking on the icon on the left.
Most associate degree programs may be completed in four semesters, if the student is attending on a full-time basis, successfully completing the required number of hours, following the specific educational plan provided by an advisor and is not required to complete developmental-level courses. A student may choose to extend the amount of time spent completing the degree.
