A new transfer agreement gives added flexibility to Lakeshore Technical College graduates and employees seeking their bachelor’s or master’s degrees. The arrangement between LTC and Western Governors University gives students graduating with associate degrees from 10 different LTC programs a seamless transfer of credits to WGU. All LTC Graduates and employees are also eligible to apply for the Community College Partner Scholarship valued at up to $2,500 each.
Western Governors University is a nonprofit, fully online university delivering instruction for more than 80 undergraduate and graduate degree programs in the fields of business, K-12 teacher education, information technology, and health professions including nursing.
LTC President Dr. Paul Carlsen said that the agreement “…provides another option for those completing their degree while continuing to work part-time or full-time.”, noting that at the same time the arrangement supports efforts to satisfy local workforce needs.
