Be sure you can major in your chosen field at the receiving institution. Knowing what career you wish to pursue is always a big decision that requires assessment of your abilities and interests. By the time you have finished your AA degree, try to have this decision made. Certainly, people change their minds and change careers. However, knowing your career choice makes it easier to choose a college major.
Some careers stipulate a specific degree.
Others have more leeway. How the college is perceived by others is important. Look at the accreditation of the receiving institution. Many agencies evaluate college programs. Typically, schools seek accreditation from national or regional agencies such as North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.
