QCC and Assumption’s Longstanding Partnership Deepens

WORCESTER, MA—August 1, 2019— Quinsigamond Community College (QCC) and Assumption College have forged a new transfer agreement that will offer graduates of QCC’s Liberal Arts Environmental Science associate degree program a seamless way to transfer as juniors to Assumption’s Environmental Science bachelor degree program. This agreement is just another way that QCC and Assumption have strengthened their partnership to help facilitate student success. QCC already has two transfer agreements with Assumption in Business Administration, as well as an agreement in Computer Science and one Human Services.

“Our long-established relationship with Assumption College is something that has given many of our students a clear and financially-feasible pathway to further their education,” said QCC President Dr. Luis G. Pedraja.

Benefits of these types of agreements include the thousands of dollars students will save by starting at QCC and then transferring to a four-year college or university.

“These types of articulation agreements are a great way to earn a higher education that won’t break the bank for students,” Dr. Pedraja added.

QCC offers a multitude of articulation agreements with public and private institutions, both in-state as well as out-of-state. For a current list of articulation agreements and programs visit www.qcc.edu/services/transfer/transfer-agreements .
