Mississippi University for Women has signed a new agreement with Holmes Community College in Goodman, Mississippi that establishes several streamlined degree pathways for students.
The two partnering institutions have developed a “3+1+1” program that will allow community college students to earn an associate’s degree, bachelor’s degree, and master’s degree within five years. Through the program, students will begin by completing three years of study at Holmes. They will then transfer MUW, spending one year working towards a bachelor of applied science degree, which has 10 concentrations, including eight entirely online. Upon completing their undergraduate education, participating students can enroll in MUW’s one-year, online MBA program.
“We are excited to announce our partnership with Holmes Community College, which reinforces our commitment to accessible education and creates new opportunities for students,” said Nora Miller, President of Mississippi University for Women. Together, we are dedicated to supporting academic growth and ensuring our graduates are well-prepared to enter the workforce.”
