English

Eastern Arizona College’s English program provides a strong foundation in analytical reading, academic writing, and the study of major works in English, American, and world literature. The program emphasizes developing clear, research‑supported arguments and practicing rigorous source evaluation—skills essential for success in both humanities and scientific disciplines.

The English Associate of Arts degree meets the requirements for the first two years of a four-year bachelor’s program at Arizona’s public universities and many others nationwide. You can transfer with junior status after building a strong academic foundation in small classes offered at an extremely affordable tuition cost.

You are encouraged to work closely with an academic adviser and consult the official transfer guide to ensure you are on the correct course to maximize course transferability.
