Programs of Study

Old Dominion University Articulation Agreements  

Programs designated Associate of Science,  Associate of ArtS, and Associate of Fine Arts are normally designed for transfer to a four-year college or university. Students completing these programs ususally enter the transfer college or university with junior status.

Programs designated Associate of Applied Science or Associate of Applied Art are normally designed for students seeking training and will move directly into the workforce.  

Certificates and Career Studies certificates serve various purposes. In some instances they are offered at the request of local business and industry as a training tool to enhance employee knowledge and/or skills. Certificates take less time to attain but may also be used as the first step towards completion of a two- or four-year degree.  

It is strongly recommended that students considering transferring to a four-year college or university seek assistance from our Academic Advising/College Transfer team; information available at: http://tncc.edu/advising/transfer.  Note that there are programs in the AAA/AAS category that may be accepted in transfer.
