Requirements

We understand that continuing education can have a powerful impact on the future of one’s career. From career advancement to a higher rate of pay, furthering your education can help make these opportunities become reality. We are also sensitive to the fact that in order for individuals to advance their careers through continued education, that education cannot disrupt their professional lives.

For this reason, Spartan's Independent Study Program allows graduates of Spartan diploma programs to complete an Associate of Applied Science Degree without returning to the college. In order to complete this degree, the following requirements must be met:

1. You must be a graduate of a currently offered program. Spartan's current technical programs include:
   • Aviation Maintenance Technology
   • Avionics Maintenance Technology
   • Quality Control and Nondestructive Testing
   
   Completion of the Associate of Applied Science Aviation Maintenance Technology degree requires that you are a graduate of:
   • Professional Pilot Diploma
2. Academic requirements for the Associate of Applied Science Degree must be met and include:
   • Required college level general education courses, which may be completed at a college in your area.
   • Completion of Spartan's Independent Study Course, which you may also complete without returning to Spartan.
3. You must have the prospective college and courses pre-approved prior to enrolling in the courses. You must send a copy of the accreditation page from of the prospective college’s catalog and a copy of the course descriptions to get pre-approval.
4. General education courses taken at your local college must be similar in course hours and content to the current Spartan courses for both general education courses and the required independent study.
