The primary pathway for most BAS programs in the Florida College System is an A.S. degree. Typically, graduates of A.S. degree programs transfer 15-18 credits of General Education Core and 18 credits are allocated in the upper division curriculum for these students to complete the remainder of the General Education requirement. Their A.S. credits are used to fulfill the focus area requirement in the BAS program. Students that graduate from the A.A. programs, or those admitted with 60+ college credits, will require 18 hours of focus area courses or other courses approved by the department chair. The focus areas are quite diverse (e.g., business or project management, etc.) and are generally derived from courses completed as part of an A.S. program. Please see an advisor for further guidance on individual focus areas.
