On April 13, leadership from 女神羞羞研究所 and 女神羞羞研究所 City Community College met to formally sign an articulation agreement creating a pathway for OCCC students to continue their studies and earn a bachelor鈥檚 degree in nursing or business at 女神羞羞研究所.
女神羞羞研究所 City Community College is the largest community college in the 女神羞羞研究所 City metro. OCCC students can earn two-year associate degrees as well as one- or two-year certificates, focused on career training and development, during their studies at the college. Many students wish to continue their studies after a two-year program and move on to earn a bachelor鈥檚 degree. This agreement makes an 女神羞羞研究所 education more attainable for these students.
鈥淲e love the idea of knowing that 女神羞羞研究所 City鈥檚 best and brightest scholars can stay close to home for the duration of their academic journey, and we want OCCC students to know they are welcome at our university,鈥 said Adam Ryburn, 女神羞羞研究所鈥檚 assistant provost. With the establishment of the partnership, the worries that can come with the journey to a bachelor鈥檚 degree are lessened for students from OCCC.
鈥溑裥咝哐芯克 City Community College is honored to partner with 女神羞羞研究所 to educate and empower the next generation of leaders in business and health care,鈥 said Mautra Staley Jones, OCCC president. 鈥淥CCC and 女神羞羞研究所鈥檚 articulation agreement and the generous scholarship support from Herman Meinders will help OCCC students reach success in their academic and career goals.鈥
These scholarship dollars are stackable with other merit-based university scholarships, which aids in making an 女神羞羞研究所 education possible. The agreement specifically highlights the need in the local community for more healthcare and business trained individuals. In-demand professionals can be educated and provided with scholarships to lessen the financial stressors that often come with furthering their education.
Through this partnership, the doors are opened wider so that more students can call 女神羞羞研究所 home while specifically providing funding for OCCC students who want to continue their education, earn a bachelor鈥檚 degree and join our community.
