MWCC, Clark form transfer-student agreement
Mount Wachusett Community College (MWCC) has partnered with Clark University in Worcester to facilitate transfer opportunities for MWCC students, the community college in Gardner announced Thursday.
The agreement applies to eligible students enrolled in MWCC’s associate’s degree program in Liberal Arts and Sciences, and who wish to pursue a bachelor of arts degree.
“We are delighted to partner with Clark University to expand transfer options for our graduates,” MWCC President Daniel M. Asquino said in the statement. He explained the new partnership opens new opportunities for students and demonstrates the schools’ “shared commitment to making quality education accessible and affordable.”
“Part of Clark’s mission from its earliest days as an undergraduate institution has been to serve the educational needs of the young adults in central Massachusetts,” Davis Baird, Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost at Clark, said in the statement. “We are very pleased to participate in this new transfer agreement with Mount Wachusett Community College, and we look forward to providing their students opportunities to build on their work at MWCC to seek a Clark degree.”
Eligible students will also be considered for the Phi Theta Kappa Scholarship, the Transfer Achievement Scholarship, the Clark University Scholarship, and the Jonas Clark Transfer Scholarship.
At Clark, students will experience LEEP (Liberal Education and Effective Practice), a pioneering model of education that combines liberal arts education with intensive world, workplace, and personal experiences, the statement said.
