Undergraduate Degree Requirements

Degree Offerings

Charter Oak State College offers a range of majors under the Associate of Science and Bachelor of Science degree designations, along with a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology.

The distinction between a degree in "Arts" and a degree in "Science" is the number of Liberal Arts and Sciences credits required. Liberal Arts and Sciences include subjects within the areas of humanities, social sciences, mathematics, and natural sciences. Subjects not included in the category of Liberal Arts and Sciences are those of a technical, professional, or occupationally-oriented nature. In other words, subjects involving the application of knowledge to particular activities such as business, technology, healthcare, social services and teaching are not considered Liberal Arts.

To graduate, students must meet all the credit, degree, and academic requirements. A minimum of 120 credits is required for a bachelor’s degree and a minimum of 60 credits for an associate degree. In addition, students must have a minimum 2.0 cumulative grade point average.
