Bachelor's Students Awarded Associate Degrees
Kent State University’s seven Regional Campuses will begin automatically awarding associate degrees to bachelor’s degree-seeking students who have completed all requirements for either the Associate of Arts or Associate of Science degree.
To qualify:
- the student must be currently enrolled
- have completed or be currently enrolled in courses that meet the requirements of an associate of arts or associate of science degree
- have not previously been awarded a degree
