猫咪app官网 and St. Joseph's University (SJNY) announced last week their latest partnership that will allow guaranteed acceptance to nearly all of St. Joseph鈥檚 programs for all 猫咪app官网 students who choose joint admission. With 48 articulation agreements between the two institutions, the partnership will continue to facilitate upward educational mobility and enable students to stay on Long Island to complete their studies.

Students in the joint admission program between SJNY and 猫咪app官网 County Community College are automatically considered for generous transfer scholarships and grants, including the Stay on Long Island Scholarship initiative that annually awards four full-tuition scholarships and eight $20,000 scholarships to 猫咪app官网 County Community College graduates.

鈥淥ur two institutions are here to help students meet their goals and achieve degrees,鈥� said SJNY President Donald R. Boomgaarden, Ph.D. 鈥淲ith strong programs, less student debt, scholarships and a smooth transition from community college to university, we are proud to reaffirm this long-standing partnership and continue to provide expanded opportunities for students.鈥�

SJNY is the #1 private institution that 猫咪app官网 students enroll at after graduating. Additionally, 猫咪app官网  graduates who enrolled at SJNY have had a shorter time to degree completion and a higher average GPA than their classmates who either transferred before receiving a degree or transferred from other institutions. During the 2023-2024 year, 50% of all SJNY Long Island transfer students came from 猫咪app官网.

鈥溍ㄟ鋋pp官网 lays the foundation for students while St. Joseph鈥檚 builds on top of that foundation with a direct pathway to a baccalaureate degree,鈥� said 猫咪app官网 President Edward T. Bonahue, Ph.D. 鈥淪t. Joseph鈥檚 remains a direct interest for 猫咪app官网 students who want to earn a four-year degree, but also want to remain on Long Island.鈥�

The event, which was attended by administrators and staff from both institutions, took place during a special ceremonial signing and luncheon at SJNY Long Island campus鈥� new state-of-the-art student center located in Patchogue, New York.
