Introduction

The Associate of Arts in English degree (AA) provides major English through an introduction to English composition, critical thinking, literature, and creative writing. Please note that the English AA does not guarantee admission to CSU as the English AA-T does. However, like the Associate in Arts in English for Transfer (AA-T), the coursework will prepare students for the critical reading and writing necessary in various fields. The Associate in Arts in English (AA) intent is added to provide students with an enriched background in a broader, interdisciplinary range of courses that provides more general preparation in reading, writing, critical thinking, humanities, and creative expression. Students may take elective courses in fields as varied as English as a Second Language, French, Humanities, Mass Communications, Spanish, Speech, and Theater Arts. If the student prefers this broader range of preparation to that of the Associate in Arts in English for Transfer (AA-T) enter the English major at the transfer university of his or her choice, it is essential that the student also refer to the catalogue of the prospective transfer institution and consult a counsellor. If a student plans to attend the University of California, the AA in English may meet the student's needs just as well. Students should speak to a counsellor about their options.
