Thinking about a bachelor’s degree? We can help!
Your associate’s degree will open many doors, including pathways to a bachelor’s degree (and beyond). If you are thinking about continuing your education after your associate’s degree, it is important to start planning early. Most bachelor’s degree programs will require you to take specific classes before you can enter your chosen major. Whether you plan to continue your studies at one of FSW’s industry-leading bachelor’s degree programs, or transfer to another institution—the Office of Academic Advising is here to guide you through the process. Schedule an appointment with your advisor today in the FSW portal.
