Bucks County Community College, which has been providing an affordable first two years of a bachelor’s degree for 50 years, has finalized agreements with ������ý���� to enable students to easily transfer in 13 majors.

“These agreements with ������ý���� will provide Bucks students with a broad range of opportunities to create a seamless transition across a wide variety of disciplines that our two schools support,” said Dr. Clayton Railey III, provost at Bucks. “The scope of these agreements leaves no discipline untouched, from the humanities to the sciences and much in between.”

James P. O’Hara, vice president of Enrollment Management, added, “Our collaboration with Bucks dates back to the beginning of its foundation as a community college 50 years ago and includes a resigning of an institutional agreement during the Fall of 2013. This partnership just continues to get stronger. Although agreements like this are beneficial for both institutions, the most important advantage is to students who gain improved opportunities to achieve their higher education goals.”

The agreements, signed Thursday, Feb. 19, at Bucks’ Newtown campus, provide program-to-program transfer arrangements in the following disciplines:

“We have similar agreements with numerous other colleges and universities, but this includes our first honors-to-honors agreement,” added Ronni November, director of the advising and transfer center at Bucks. “This means graduates of our ‘Honors@Bucks’ program can transfer into ������ý����’s Baccalaureate Honors program.”

O’Hara said this is also ������ý����’s first honors agreement with a community college.

Bucks students already are guaranteed transfer to ������ý���� if they declare their intention during their freshman year, and complete the associate degree at Bucks with a grade-point-average of 2.5 or higher. The latest agreements provide Bucks students graduating in these particular majors with an exact plan of which courses match ������ý����’s requirements.
