Why General Studies

Motlow’s General Studies degree is one of our most popular college plans.

Eligibility for Tuition-Free Scholarships such as Promise or Reconnect makes Motlow a wise place to launch every academic journey. Whether you want to pursue a 2-year associates degree or a 4-year bachelors, the General Studies plan can provide a solid foundation with flexible options.

The General Studies degree plan is great for three types of students in particular. It’s perfect for students who know they plan to transfer. It’s great for working adults who want a 2-year degree that helps them advance into leadership roles requiring college credentials. It is also a wonderful plan for undecided majors to begin college while continuing to explore their options.

Our lower tuition rates, smaller classes, free tutoring, transferability, and a host of student success services round out the many reasons students choose General Studies. Motlow also offers a wide variety of college transfer agreements for this plan. These college-to-college agreements help students start with Motlow, earn an associate degree, and then transfer on to pursue additional degrees. Several universities even partner with us to allow our students to complete their bachelors degrees on a Motlow campus. Ask our recruiters or student success coaches for more information on why a General Studies degree might be the right plan for you.
