LCCC and Central Penn College Sign Articulation Agreements May 16, 2016

LCCC and Central Penn College Sign Articulation Agreements May 16, 2016

The presidents of Central Penn College and Lehigh Carbon Community College (LCCC) today signed an articulation agreement ensuring students graduating with an associate degree from LCCC can seamlessly transfer their credits into a bachelor’s degree program at Central Penn College.

Under the agreement, students interested in participating will sign an intent to enroll form, which will allow for dual advising between both LCCC and Central Penn College, assuring they are on the right path to earning their bachelor’s degree.

The articulation agreement allows graduates of specified LCCC associate degree programs a smooth transition to parallel bachelor of science degrees in accounting, business administration, criminal justice, healthcare management, health science and nursing at Central Penn College. The program-to-program agreements will provide students with 60 transfer credits and the opportunity to complete a bachelor’s degree program by fulfilling the remaining 65 to 66 credits as required, through Central Penn College offerings on the Summerdale campus, in Lancaster or completely online.
