RVCC And Moore College Sign Transfer Agreement

BRANCHBURG, NJ — Raritan Valley Community College in Branchburg and Moore College of Art & Design have signed a new agreement that will allow female students to seamlessly transfer to the Philadelphia-based women’s visual arts college to complete their Bachelor’s Degree.

Students who receive an Associate of Science in Interior Architecture and Design from RVCC may now transfer to Moore’s Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Design program with junior standing, as long as they fulfill certain requirements, according to the agreement.

This includes maintaining the requisite grade point average and submitting a required portfolio of eight to 12 pieces of artwork.

“The new agreement with Moore College of Art & Design gives RVCC’s talented women a wonderful opportunity to continue their education and complete a Bachelor’s Degree in the field of interior design,” said RVCC President Michael J. McDonough. “As an added benefit, Moore will be making grants and scholarships available to students based on their grade point average and portfolio of work.”

According to the agreement, RVCC graduates may transfer up to 76 credits to the Moore Bachelor’s Degree program.
