Foreign Languages

Students who plan to transfer to a Florida public university should complete a minimum of eight semester hours in a foreign language at Florida Community College or have completed two high school credits. Courses are offered in Chinese (CHI 1120 and CHI 1121), French (FRE 1120 and FRE 1121), Spanish (SPN 1120 and SPN 1121), German (GER 1120 and GER 1121) and Russian (RUS 1120 and RUS 1121) that fulfill this eight semester hours requirement. You may use Sign Language I, II and III (SPA 1612, SPA 1613 and SPA 1614) to satisfy foreign language requirements, however, these courses may not count toward the requirements of the university.

Associate in Arts Degree (A.A.)

The associate in arts degree is the most common community college degree program. It is a general education degree program for students who intend to transfer to a university to complete a bachelor’s degree. Earning a Florida Community College A.A. degree guarantees your admission to a state university in Florida. Florida Community College also has educational alliances with several other institutions that fully accept the College’s degree and credits and will admit our graduates at junior-level standing.
