Kutztown University (KU) and Lehigh Carbon Community College (LCCC) signed two articulation agreements April 11 in the Stratton Administration Building on the Kutztown campus. KU President Dr. Kenneth S. Hawkinson and LCCC President Dr. Ann Bieber presided at the signing.

Under the dual admission core-to-core agreement, LCCC students who submit a Letter of Intent to enter KU will be assured admissions into a bachelor’s degree program with third year (junior) status at KU and will have their KU application fee waived provided conditions are satisfied.

Hawkinson and Bieber also signed an updated articulation agreement that facilitates the transfer of students completing an associate of applied science degree in Paralegal Studies at LCCC to the bachelor of arts degree in English, history or political science or bachelor of science degree in criminal justice, psychology or public administration at KU.

KU has 312 students enrolled who transferred from LCCC. Eighty-four of those students enrolled in 2015.
