State colleges offer B.A. via online study
BELLEVUE — A full bachelor of arts degree in social sciences is now available through online study as a result of an expanded partnership between Bellevue Community College, Edmonds Community College and Washington State University.
Students in the online program will take the first two years of study through the online programs of Bellevue Community College and/or Edmonds Community College, for which they earn an associate in arts and sciences degree. The final two years of the program will be completed through Washington State University's online programs. The student would then receive a bachelor's degree from WSU.
The associate's degree is a pre-major program designed to fulfill the first two academic years of university work. It is accepted by all public universities in Washington state, but the course work prescribed for the online degree in social science is specifically geared for transfer to WSU. Other online degrees offered by the three schools include associate in arts and sciences and bachelor's degrees in general business and management-information systems.
For more information, visit distance-ed.bcc.ctc.edu/degreesframe.htm at Bellevue Community College, online.edcc.edu at Edmonds Community College, or www.distance.wsu.edu/degrees/#bachelor at Washington State University.
