An Associate of Arts with designation in economics is ideal as a foundation for a Bachelor's degree. Students considering a four-year degree can begin at PPSC and transfer to any four-year public institution under guaranteed transfer agreements.

The Statewide Transfer Agreement will allow students to transfer to a Colorado public four-year school and complete their Bachelor's degree with an additional 60 credit hours. Transfers from PPSC should be reviewed prior to transfer to ensure that credits transfer within the new institution's Bachelor's degree requirements.
