Prescott, Ariz, Jan. 11, 2010 – Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and Yavapai College have partnered to create new options for area students seeking Bachelor of Science degrees. This articulation agreement between Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University - Prescott and Yavapai College is a cooperative agreement that facilitates the transfer of students from Yavapai College to Embry-Riddle.
Under the new arrangement, a smooth transition between Embry-Riddle and Yavapai College is ensured by assigning an advisor from Embry-Riddle to each student at the start of their program. Students will enroll in their respective track courses to graduate with an Associate of Business, Associate of Science, or Associate of Arts degree from Yavapai College. This program is open to any high school graduate currently attending or planning to attend Yavapai College and Embry-Riddle.
“The students within this program will be co-enrolled so they can become comfortable with the Embry-Riddle campus,” said Chief Academic Officer, Richard Bloom, Ph.D. “This is a great opportunity for area students to take part in college activities at both campuses while they pursue their bachelor degree.”
One of the major advantages of the new program is that it makes a bachelor’s degree from Embry-Riddle, whose graduates are sought after by the leading high-tech employers across the nation, attainable for a broader range of students.
For additional information or to apply for the program contact Mr. Rob Kelm, Assistant Director of Admissions for Embry-Riddle, at 928-777-3851, robert.kelm@erau.edu Students seeking advising on this program at Yavapai College should contact Yavapai College Academic Advising Office at 928-776-2106.
