Pitt-Bradford has entered into transfer agreements with Jamestown (N.Y.) Community College to help students who plan to earn an associate’s degree at JCC and transfer into a bachelor’s degree program at the Bradford campus. The new agreements cover UPB programs in history/political science, human relations, interdisciplinary arts and writing.

Each agreement guarantees acceptance of JCC students who complete up to 75 transferable credits (with a minimum grade of C in each course), achieve a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.5, meet Pitt-Bradford conduct standards and complete application and deposit requirements by May 1.

The agreements also guarantee junior standing to students who transfer a minimum of 60 credit hours and guarantee the opportunity to complete the bachelor’s degree in four semesters to students who complete courses specified in the agreement as part of their associate’s degree.

Pitt-Bradford and JCC also have updated other transfer articulation agreements, and many of the changes give JCC students more latitude in choosing courses that will transfer.
