Business Associate in Arts (BUS-AA)

This program is designed to provide the first two years of a four-year university program leading to a baccalaureate degree in accounting, business administration, economics, finance, management, or marketing. However, the student who desires to postpone pursuit of a bachelor’s degree will have acquired sufficient knowledge and skill upon completion of this two-year program to be ready for employment.

Students wishing to transfer to UWF, FSU, or UF should consult with a counselor to select appropriate electives. Students should consult with an advisor at the college or university they plan to attend for the specific courses recommended by that institution.

We strongly encourage you to contact the Pensacola State College Business Department for assistance in planning your program of study.
