Programs of Study

Union College of Union County, NJ offers two-year programs leading to the Associate in Arts, Associate in Science, and the Associate in Applied Science degrees, and programs leading to the Certificate and Certificate of Achievement. The course requirements for each program are outlined in this catalog.

A matriculated student enrolls in the college to pursue study toward a specific degree. To be eligible for financial aid, students MUST be in a degree program in other words, they must be matriculated.

A non-matriculated student has not entered a degree program but is enrolled in courses.

All matriculated students, whether they plan to transfer to a four-year institution or complete their college careers at the end of their programs, are eligible for the Associate degree, the Certificate, or the Diploma if all graduation requirements set forth in this catalog have been met. The curriculum programs are offered as guidelines and courses do not necessarily need to be taken in the order suggested. Please note, however, that many courses require prerequisites or corequisites.

Milestone courses (shown in bold in the recommended course sequence) identify critical courses for timely progress and the semester in which the course should be completed for on-time graduation. Milestone course grades less than a 2.0 (C) should be discussed with an advisor. More information is available at https://www.ucc.edu/campus-life/academicmaps/.

Academic Programs are subject to change. Students should contact the office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs for the most current information.
