GRCC’s exercise science department recently signed a 2+2 pre-major articulated program agreement with Grand Valley that gives GRCC students a seamless transfer to Grand Valley’s rapidly growing clinical exercise science program. After the signing of the June 4 articulation agreement, students in other GRCC programs will have the same ease of transfer as those students pursuing clinical exercise science. Faculty from both institutions will work together formalizing a set of GRCC courses that students need in order to complete a transfer to Grand Valley.

“This is another step in our partnership designed to help students reach their goals, while saving money,” Grand Valley President Thomas J. Haas said. “We are committed to eliminating barriers and redundancy to streamline students’ paths to obtaining college degrees.”

GRCC President Steven C. Ender said: “This partnership means that our students will be able to see a clear pathway from their GRCC courses to the degree programs they want to pursue at Grand Valley. They will know what they need to do, and Grand Valley will know that they are prepared to excel there.”
