Associate Degree
General Education Requirements:
In addition to the courses in the
major, additional units in general education (GE) are required
for graduation with the Associate in Science Degree. The
Grossmont College Counseling Center will assist in identifying
these general education courses. Note: All courses in the major
must be completed with a "C" grade or better.
The Grossmont College Respiratory
Therapy Program has strived to maintain flexibility to the
student desiring the Associates Degree. To receive an Associate
Degree, the student must complete General Education
Requirements. The General Education Requirements are listed in
the Grossmont College Catalog and should be reviewed prior to
registration.
Although the Respiratory Therapy
Program encourages completion of General Education Requirements
during the course of study, it is also possible to complete
these requirements prior to or after the course of study or
during summer session. Please feel free to contact the
Counseling Center for further information.
