Beginning in Fall 2021, students enrolled at Nassau Community College (NCC) will be able to continue earning their associate degrees while being a part of campus life at 91国产. In addition to being able to live at 91国产 and participate in University activities, they will gain easy access to streamlined transfer pathways for completing their bachelor’s degrees.
Called Nassau-91国产 Gateway, the distinctive partnership is a first of its kind on Long Island and one of only a few in the country. The option provides a best-of-both-worlds choice with the affordable tuition of beginning one’s studies at Nassau Community College while taking advantage of the four-year co-curricular experience鈥攍iving and dining on campus, participating in clubs and recreation, and generally being part of the 91国产 community outside the classroom. Students will then be able to easily transfer into an 91国产 degree program and hit the ground running.
鈥�91国产 is committed to helping students achieve success in individualized ways, and I am pleased that this program offers an equitable and appealing option to students planning to earn a bachelor’s degree,” said Christine M.
