What is an AGEC?
The Arizona General Education Curriculum (AGEC) is a thirty-five semester credit "block" that you can
complete at any Arizona community college. Because there are some differences in the mathematics
and science requirements for different degrees, there are three AGECs.
- AGEC-A: This is 35 semester credits that are part of the Associate of Arts degree.
- AGEC-B: This is 35 semester credits that are part of the Associate of Business degree.
- AGEC-S: This is 35 semester credits that are part of the Associate of Science degree.
Completion of the AGEC with a grade point average of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale guarantees your
admission to the universities if you are a resident student. Non-residents must have a grade point
average of 2.5 on a 4.0 scale. Completion of the AGEC also means that you will have met the
lower-division general studies requirements at any of the Arizona public universities for the majors that articulate with that AGEC.
