The Arkansas Department of Higher Education has
asked all Arkansas institutions offering an A.A.S. Degree to print the following
general disclaimer:
The Associate of Applied
Science Degree is designed for employment purposes, and it should not be assumed
that the degree or the courses in the degree can be transferred to another
institution. While a few institutions have recently begun to accept some courses
in A.A.S. programs, the general rule is that courses in the A.A.S. degrees
are not accepted in transfer toward bachelor's degrees. Students to whom transfer
is important should get assurance in writing in advance and only from the
institution to which they wish to transfer.
