Catalogs and Emphasis

Selection of Appropriate Catalog
All first-time entering students are allowed two (2) years from their entrance date as a degree-seeking student to complete requirements and regulations in force at the time of their entrance to Trinidad State College. If graduation requirements are not completed within the two-year span, the student must meet the requirements and regulations that exist at the time of application for graduation. Students who interrupt their studies for one year or more will enter under the current catalog.

Selecting Your Emphasis
Students may choose one or more area of emphasis. The Associate of Arts (AA) and the Associate of Science (AS) degrees allow students to select a specific emphasis of study. Though it is not necessary to select an emphasis other than AA or AS, their doing so will help those planning to transfer to a four-year college or university and aid them in setting educational and career objectives. Completion of an AA or AS degree is guaranteed to transfer to any four-year college or university in Colorado.
