Jamestown Community College has signed new and updated articulation agreements with several colleges to facilitate the transfer of JCC graduates into bachelor's degree programs.

The agreements stipulate coursework, academic credits, and grade point average (GPA) expectations required of JCC students planning to transfer.

JCC students who graduate with an Associate in Science (A.S.) degree can transfer into the State University of New York College (SUNY) at Brockport's biological sciences major. Concentrations in biotechnology as well as pre-health professional studies, which include medicine, dentistry, veterinary, and health careers are encouraged in the transfer agreement.

JCC also has an agreement with Alfred University for students who would like to transfer into Alfred's biology, chemistry, environmental studies, and gerontology degree programs. Another agreement provides JCC graduates the opportunity to transfer into the bachelor's degree program in forensic science technology at SUNY College of Technology at Alfred.

A dual admission agreement with the University at Buffalo provides an avenue for graduates of JCC's new biotechnology degree program to transfer into UB's bachelor's degree in biotechnology. JCC also has an agreement with the Rochester Institute of Technology in which JCC biotechnology degree graduates can transfer into RIT's bachelor's degree in biotechnology program.

JCC's transfer articulation agreements are available online at www.sunyjcc.edu.
