General Studies (Liberal Arts)
Upon application to a university, the student must commit to a degree. Students are advised to work closely with a counselor or departmental advisor to ensure the courses taken at Pensacola State College will meet the student’s major requirements.
Students should consult with an advisor at the college or university they plan to attend for the specific courses recommended by that institution. We strongly encourage you to contact the Pensacola State College Center for Advising and Career Services on any campus for assistance in planning your program of study.
