The AAP is your pathway to a UD degree in Dover, Georgetown and Wilmington
BodyText1
The University of Delaware Associate in Arts Program (AAP) is a two-year degree program that offers UD courses, taught exclusively by UD faculty, in small classes at the Community Education Building in Wilmington and on Delaware Tech campuses in Dover and Georgetown.
The Delaware SEED Scholarship covers AAP tuition for eligible Delaware residents. For other students, tuition is substantially lower — approximately one-third the cost of tuition at UD's main campus in Newark.
With campuses in Wilmington, Dover and Georgetown, the AAP allows Delaware students to stay close to home while completing the core courses required of all UD undergrads. After earning their Associate in Arts degree, most students then choose to transition to UD's Newark campus to pursue their four-year bachelor's degree.
For Future Educators

On our Georgetown and Wilmington campuses, we offer the Elementary Teacher Education associate degree (AA-ETE) program, which allows students to complete the Bachelor of Science in Education (BS.Ed.) degree in four years. As an AA-ETE student, you will begin your education courses and classroom field experiences in your first semester, allowing you to apply what you learn from your coursework and develop your teaching skills with children immediately.
For Future Nurses

Georgetown's dual-admissions partnership with Beebe Healthcare's Margaret H. Rollins School of Nursing in Lewes, Del., offers prospective nursing students the opportunity to simultaneously earn an Associate in Arts degree from UD and a diploma in professional nursing from Rollins, which is the only hospital-based nursing program in Delaware. As a dual-enrollment nursing student, you get the best of both schools, receiving a UD education in your prerequisite courses with the AAP while also gaining valuable clinical experience at the Rollins School of Nursing.
Take a virtual tour of the Rollins campus and learn more about the AAP’s exciting opportunities for nursing students in southern Delaware.
