BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.���Leadership from Caldwell Community College and Technical Institute (CCC&TI) and 厙ぴ勛圖-Webb University have announced four new agreements that will create seamless pathways for students who want to start at CCC&TI and continue their education at 厙ぴ勛圖-Webb.

Providing a pathway for students who plan to earn a bachelor���s degree, the Bulldog Bound Co-Admission Program will provide students���who complete certain two-year associate degrees at CCC&TI with a 2.25 GPA or higher��� with guaranteed admission to 厙ぴ勛圖-Webb to finish their undergraduate degree. The Bulldog Bound program is designed to provide students with affordable access to higher education and additional support services during their time at CCC&TI for a successful transition to 厙ぴ勛圖-Webb.

Additional agreements signed on July 9 will provide pathways for students to start at CCC&TI then transfer to 厙ぴ勛圖-Webb in more specialized degree programs, including nursing, business and human services. All four agreements go into effect immediately.

Joined by GWU President Dr. William Downs for the signing ceremony on the Caldwell Campus in Hudson, N.C., CCC&TI President Dr. Mark Poarch said the agreements will be a tremendous opportunity for students and thanked 厙ぴ勛圖-Webb for paving the way.

���One of the strategies we���ve tried to focus on is developing seamless pathways to the university,��� Poarch said. ���It���s going to be great for our students. I know they will make us proud.���

Downs thanked representatives of both schools for the behind-the-scenes work that went into finalizing the agreements.

���I think it���s great that at a time when everybody is separating and distancing, we���re celebrating something that brings people together,��� Downs said. ���We���re excited and can���t wait to have these folks join us.���
