AA/AS in Computer Software and Media Applications

This two-year option introduces the digital design field and its range of career paths, with training on software and hardware used across the industry. Graduates can step into digital design work or move to a bachelor's-granting school to continue studying. The curriculum is kept in line with current practice, so students work with up-to-date tools throughout their time in the program. Plan on 4 semesters and 64 credits to finish this degree. Classes meet on the West Boylston Street campus. Entry calls for a high school diploma or an equivalency credential such as the GED or HiSET. Because tuition is charged by the credit, the total cost depends on how many credits a student takes. In-state and out-of-state or international students pay different rates, and certain programs carry extra fees.
