The SLCC American Sign Language/Interpreting department offers two programs:
- The American Sign Language Program allows you to get an Associate of Arts degree and transfer to a four-year institution to pursue a Bachelor's degree.
- SLCC's ASL/English Interpreting Program allows you to graduate with an Associate of Applied Science degree, trains students to become skilled ASL/English interpreters, and prepares them to take the state certification exam and enter the interpreting field. The program accepts 12 students each Fall, and admission can be competitive. Students who are completing their final prerequisite courses during the summer term are encouraged to apply. All applicants who have completed the prerequisites will be screened for ASL and English receptive and expressive skills to determine their readiness for the program.
