HB 2337 Articulation agreements; admission of community college students into four-year public institution.
Introduced by: Clifford L. Athey, Jr. | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED HOUSE: (all summaries)
Articulation agreements. Requires the governing board of each four-year public institution of higher education, beginning with academic year 2006-2007, to develop additional articulation and transfer agreements with uniform application to all institutions within the Virginia Community College System that (i) meet appropriate general education and program requirements at the four-year institutions; and (ii) provide additional opportunities for associate degree graduates to be admitted and enrolled. The State Council of Higher Education, consistent with its responsibility to facilitate the development of articulation agreements, must develop guidelines for such agreements.
Current law requires the State Council to develop a State Transfer Module designating those general education courses that are offered within various associate degree programs at the public two-year institutions that are transferable for credit or admission with standing as a junior (third year) to the public four-year institutions.
