Your Pathway to a Rewarding Career

In October 2024, Gupton-Jones College of Funeral Service began replacing the Associate of Science Degree with the Associate of Applied Science Degree in Funeral Service.

The newly designed curriculum incorporates feedback from current students and funeral service professionals to meet the educational standards of funeral service programs set forth by the American Board of Funeral Service Education (ABFSE) and to qualify students to sit for the National Board Exam (NBE).

Students who were enrolled in the Associate of Science Degree by July of 2024 will remain in that program if they maintain eligibility for enrollment until they fulfill program requirements. Students can also choose to switch to the new program by speaking with their Academic Advisor.
