Requirements for the Associate in Arts (A.A.) or Associate in Science (A.S.) Degrees in Specific Majors

  1. Choose a Major from the Moorpark College AA or AS degree lists below and complete the courses required for that major. Courses for the major must be completed with a grade of "C" or better, or a “P” if the course is taken on a “pass-no pass” basis (Title 5 § 55062). Even though a “P” is allowed, it is recommended that students complete all major coursework for a letter grade ("A," "B," or "C").
    Note: Universities have limitations on the number of units that may be taken on a “pass-no pass" basis and therefore it is strongly recommended that students take all major coursework for a letter grade. Most universities also have limitations on the number of general education units that may be completed on a "pass/no pass" basis.
  2. General Education - Select and complete either the Moorpark College General Education requirements (Areas 1A through 7) or the Cal-GETC. If using the Cal-GETC, all courses must be completed with a grade of "C" or better​.

3. Units - Satisfactorily complete at least 60 semester units of degree-applicable college coursework (including general education, major, and, if needed, free electives).

4. GPA - Achieve a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.0 or better in degree-applicable college credit coursework.

  • Courses for the major must be completed with a grade of "C" or better or “P” if the course is taken on a “pass-no pass” basis. Even though a “P” is allowed, it is recommended that students complete all coursework in the major for a letter grade ("A," "B," or "C"). 

5.  Residency - Complete a minimum of 12 semester units within the Ventura County Community College District (VCCCD).
