Community college programs serve two basic student populations: students planning to transfer to a four-year institution, and students looking for short-term job training or retraining. Transfer students choose between the Associate of Arts Degree, also referred to as the liberal arts transfer degree, or the Associate of Science Transfer Degree designed for students whose career goals are within science or engineering disciplines. There are also a growing number of Direct Transfer degrees and other articulation agreements between SFCC and four-year institutions, which are listed below.

Technical/Professional programs are designed primarily for short-term job training. Most of these courses are also transferable; however, the programs may not meet all the requirements of four-year institutions offering degrees in the same major. Consult with an adviser regarding the transfer requirements for a specific college or university. Certificate programs require as little as three quarters of classes. Associate of Applied Science degrees are awarded upon completion of approximately six quarters of course work.
