<p>Luzerne County Community College and Kutztown University of Pennsylvania have entered into a new agreement which will help LCCC graduates transfer from the community college to the university to complete their bachelor&#8217;s degree.</p><p>The Dual Admissions Agreement is designed to facilitate the transfer of LCCC graduates to KU in a variety of programs. LCCC students will be guaranteed admission into a parallel articulated bachelor&#8217;s degree program with third year (junior) status at KU.</p><p>In order to take advantage of the Dual Admissions Agreement, LCCC students are required to submit a letter of intent or complete the Dual Admissions online application form before completing 30 transferable credits.</p><p>Students must graduate from LCCC with an associate degree and a minimum grade point average of 2.0 in most majors. A full-time student who has completed the appropriate associate degree program at LCCC may be able to complete a bachelor&#8217;s degree in a parallel program at KU within four regular semesters. In addition, students will not pay an application fee to KU and all qualified full-time students will receive an academic scholarship each semester.</p><p>For more information about the new partnership, visit the LCCC website at www.luzerne.edu or the KU website at www.kutztown.edu or call Jim Domzalski, director of enrollment management at LCCC at 570-740-0342 or Jim Garraway, assistant director of admissions at KU at 610-683-4060.</p><style>
