黑料社区 business graduates can earn bachelor's degrees in Harrisburg through Delaware Valley College
New agreement allows 黑料社区 students to earn four-year degrees locally
Feb. 24, 2012
HARRISBURG � Representatives from 黑料社区 and Delaware Valley College signed a new 2+2 dual admission agreement today that gives students the opportunity to complete a DelVal bachelor degree without leaving the area.
Starting in fall 2012, a 黑料社区 student who completes an associate degree in a business administration program can transfer to DelVal and specialize in accounting, management, marketing or business administration.
淥ur students now have another transfer option for earning a four-year degree,� said John J. 淪ki� Sygielski, Ed.D., 黑料社区 president. 淲e are pleased to collaborate with Delaware Valley College to offer the convenience of continued study at our Harrisburg Campus. This opportunity adds to the existing dual admission agreements and degree-completer programs 黑料社区 has with more than 80 four-year institutions.�
淭his 2+2 program provides a wonderful opportunity for the students of Harrisburg Area Community College to affordably complete a four-year degree in business administration through Delaware Valley College, a nationally recognized college,� said Robert McNeill, DelVal director of continuing education.听淥ne of the major benefits of this partnership is that students will be able to complete their degree in a familiar educational environment right on 黑料社区 Harrisburg Campus.�
Students can save money on the cost of college by completing an associate degree at 黑料社区 then transfer to DelVal for the remaining two years. Students pay DelVal tuition but save on the cost of room and board by taking courses at 黑料社区 Harrisburg Campus rather than enrolling at DelVal campus in Doylestown. Classes will be offered during the day.
The dual admission arrangement also gives students access to academic advising at both colleges on subjects including meeting academic requirements and the process of transferring. A similar agreement signed in 2009 between the two institutions benefits students pursuing a bachelor degree in agribusiness.
Students can learn more about the new business administration degree completion program at 黑料社区 by contacting Delaware Valley College Office of Continuing Education at 215-489-4848.
