The Weekend Degree Program is The Next Step at Clark College

Clark College is taking The Next Step for students who want to attend college but whose jobs and lives make it hard to attend classes during the week.

Through Clark's Weekend Degree program, you can earn an associate in arts degree in two years or less.  You'll meet just one weekend per month with additional instruction online.  A flexible payment plan is available as well as Clark's excellent student services.

The Weekend Degree Program is designed for students interested in earning an Associate of Arts degree in a flexible learning environment. Completion of the program prepares students for transfer to most bachelor degree programs at public four-year institutions in Washington and Oregon.

With enrollment limited to a cohort of 25 learners in a prescribed course of study, the Weekend Degree Program is designed for your success. You will receive both personal and group support throughout your program, and you will have access to college resources to enhance your learning experience.

Participation in the program does require you to be ready for college-level English and Mathematics and begins each fall quarter. Specific requirements for selection into this program can be found here.

As a cohort program, your course of study is already determined for all eight (8) quarters of enrollment. Your studies will begin in the fall and will commence for 2 consecutive years (8 quarters/24 months). If all program and graduation requirements are met, you will receive your Associate of Arts degree at the end of the second summer session. See the current course schedule for details.
