Grant Summary

$398,400 over 39 months to establish a guarantee of transfer admission for eligible community college students who have completed the statewide Minnesota Transfer Curriculum and/or Associate of Arts degree and develop six statewide transfer pathways for Biology, Chemistry, Communications, English, History, and Psychology modeled on existing curricular pathways between public two- and four-year campuses in Minnesota. This approach will ensure that eligible students benefit from transparency in transfer admission requirements at participating independent colleges and have assurances about block transfer of credit so they can make timely progress towards the baccalaureate. This project is co-funded by the Arthur Vining Davis Foundations.
