Once you have completed the high school portion of your career program, you can finish your degree or certificate at Arizona Western College. If you took classes or earned credit through Arizona Western College while in high school, you would have credit towards graduation waiting for you. Hopefully, you have already had the opportunity to meet with faculty from AWC. If not, contact the Tech Prep office to arrange a special appointment with an instructor. Also, plan to attend a Tech Prep Senior Orientation to help you familiarize yourself with campus and finish up the registration process. The Senior Orientation is held each spring. Ask your counselor or vocational instructor for more details.
You also need to decide whether you plan to complete a certificate program or a two-year degree, and whether you intend to continue on for a four-year degree. Discuss your options with a college counselor and faculty advisor so you take the right courses for your goals. Remember that you can finish several four-year degrees at Northern Arizona University in Yuma and University of Arizona in Yuma. Your two-year A.A. A.S., or A.BUS. degree from Arizona Western College will also transfer to the state universities in Arizona. Many Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S) degrees transfer to Bachelor of Applied Science (B.A.S.) degrees at ASU. Form more information on BAS degree options, visit the ASU Web site.
