South Extends Pathway ƵAgreement with MGCCC
Posted on January 11, 2023
The presidents of Ƶ and Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College signed a Memorandum of Agreement Wednesday that continues a program to expand access to four-year degree.
The signing ceremony took place at MGCCC’s Hospitality Resort Management Center in Biloxi. The agreement is part of the Pathway Ƶprogram that streamlines the transfer process for entering South.
“Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College has been a valued partner in our Pathway Ƶprogram since 2016,” said ƵPresident Jo Bonner. “With today’s renewal we look forward to many more years of providing a smooth transition for their students to advance their education at South.”
Students who are admitted into the program are guaranteed admission to Ƶupon successful completion of the Associate of Arts degree or Associate of Science degree with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher. Reverse transfer agreements will be created by Ƶto allow students who transfer without an associate degree to complete the degree after matriculation to USA.
“We are excited about the opportunities this affords our students who are interested in degrees offered at Ƶ,” said Dr. Mary S. Graham, MGCCC president. “We have had a great partnership with Ƶfor a long time, and this continuation of that partnership reflects the commitment both our institutions have to student success.”
Each student in the program will receive access to a Ƶadvisor, who will visit their campus once each term, and other benefits, including a special ƵID card, discounts to ƵJaguar Productions, library privileges, early registration, and free admission to Ƶathletic events.
