The Bachelor of Applied Science degree is specifically designed to build on associate degrees that provide workplace skills, including career training or non-transfer associate degrees (A.A.S and A.A.S.-T degrees).

The B.A.S transfers credits from any regionally accredited associate degree including Associate of Arts (A.A.), Associate of Business (A.B.), Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.), Associate of Applied Science Transfer (A.A.S.-T), and any other associate degree from other regionally accredited community and technical colleges. Additionally, the B.A.S program can accept credits from past colleges and universities, including international institutions.
