Major: Uniform Certificate of General Studies at Blue Ridge Community College


The Certificate in Uniform Certificate of General Studies is part of the Liberal Arts and Sciences, General Studies and Humanities, Other program at Blue Ridge Community College

The Uniform Certificate of General Studies (UCGS) is a one-year college program in which all courses are transferrable and satisfy lower-division general education requirements at any Virginia public institution of higher education. The UCGS consists of seven course blocks. To satisfy the UCGS, students are required to complete the appropriate number of courses in each block as described below. Student course selection should be carefully considered since the UCGS program is not designed to capture the complexities of individual programs of study at the four-year institutions. Students should be advised to take the UCGS course that best suits their intended program of study at the four-year institution. The UCGS Course Roster for Blue Ridge Community College (BRCC) is below. Additional UCGS courses completed at other VCCS colleges will apply toward completion of the Certificate at BRCC. For additional information, contact an academic advisor.
