Administrators from West Virginia State University and Kanawha Valley Community and Technical College met last week to discuss possibilities for more collaboration between the two schools in hopes of a more "seamless" transition for students transferring.
"We want WVSU to be the home of KVCTC students who are ready to transfer and complete their bachelors' and masters' degrees," West Virginia State President Brian O. Hemphill said in a new release. "We have some work to do, but we are committed to creating new, seamless relationships for our entering KVCTC students."
"Historically, we have enjoyed a strong partnership with WVSU," CTC President Joe Badgley said in the news release. "Today we made significant progress toward framing the future of that relationship."
Some potential ideas include 2+2 and 1+3 programs, which allow students to complete the first part of their four-year degree at KVCTC, before transferring to WVSU. The first wave of pathway programs being considered includes Communication Information Technology, Criminal Justice, Management Information Systems, Health Science, Art and Psychology.
