Jersey City, N.J. \u2013 June 10, 2024 –<\/strong> Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s University recently signed a transfer agreement with neighboring Hudson County Community College (HCCC), which will make it easier for students to pursue their bachelor\u2019s degree at Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s after their graduation from HCCC. The agreement facilitates the seamless transfer of credits from HCCC to Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s, forging clear transfer pathways and ensuring students do not accumulate unnecessary excess credits at either institution.<\/p>\n

The latest collaboration between Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s and HCCC removes barriers that many students face when transferring from a two-year to a four-year institution, which is the discovery that some of their credits are not accepted at the new school. The agreement will also provide additional resources, including a transfer counselor, to ensure they have the support they need to successfully transition to Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis collaboration signifies our joint commitment to empowering students with tools and resources to excel academically and thrive in their chosen field,\u201d said Eugene J. Cornacchia, Ph.D., president of Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s University. \u201cOur doors are always welcome to the graduates of HCCC and this agreement is not just about streamlining academic transitions, but it\u2019s about building futures together.\u201d<\/p>\n

In accordance with the agreement, HCCC and Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s will develop and maintain accurate, up-to-date course equivalency listings for HCCC\u2019s associate degree programs and the B.A., B.S. and B.P.S. programs at Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s, which will be reviewed annually.<\/p>\n

Each institution will assign liaisons to facilitate their ongoing communication. Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s will engage one of its employees to administer the day-to-day operations on the HCCC campus and HCCC will provide shared space and other services for Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s employees.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud to solidify this connection with Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s University, which is fitting as we are neighboring institutions standing together in the shadow of the Statue of Liberty,\u201d said Christopher Reber, Ph.D., president of HCCC. \u201cWe look forward to seeing the partnership generate opportunities for our students as they take the next step toward earning their bachelor\u2019s and graduate degrees. Many HCCC graduates continue their journeys at nearby Â鶹ÊÓƵ\u2019s each year and this agreement will be transformational for them.\u201d<\/p>\n
