Middlesex Community College and Northeastern University will host an A2M Family & Community Open House from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. Friday, April 12, in the Lowell Campus Cafeteria, 33 Kearney Square, to highlight the new Biotechnology Associate to Master’s Scholars Program, known as “A2M.”

A new partnership between Middlesex and Northeastern, the A2M Scholars Program enables MCC Biotech grads to continue on to earn bachelor’s and master’s degrees at Northeastern in an accelerated pathway – and receive scholarships and special support services along the way.

At the A2M Open House, prospective students and their families can learn about A2M, meet with MCC and Northeastern Biotech faculty and admission teams, and welcome the newest students accepted to the A2M Program. Refreshments will be served.
