The two-year Associate Degree is a collection of academic courses that are fully transferable to any BC university or university-college, as well as universities across Canada. It's the first half of a Bachelor Degree, but it's also a recognized credential on its own. That's important if you decide not to continue into 3rd year studies. Camosun offers many different Associate Degree programs in Arts and Science.
Surveys show that Associate Degree graduates have greater success at university than other transfer students. Also, some BC institutions offer lower GPA entrance requirements or priority admission to Associate Degree graduates—some even grant transfer credit for all courses taken to complete an Associate Degree.
Students planning on transferring to another institution with Camosun College’s Associate Degree should consult with that institution to determine whether the individual courses taken will be applicable to their final educational goal.
Work Experience is now an option for Associate Degree students
Associate Degree programs have either a Co-op or Internship option. Students will gain practical work experience, which may be paid or unpaid, through either a four-month Internship or two co-op work terms, available after eight courses of academic study. For more information, contact a Co-op Employment Facilitator at phillips@camosun.bc.ca.
If you have questions regarding your educational goals, choosing a course, course prerequisites or transfer credit, please contact Academic Advising. If you need more information regarding criteria for admission to a program, how/when to register or tuition costs, please contact Enrolment Services.
