The University of Arizona Global Campus (UAGC), a leading provider of fully online higher education, is launching a new partnership with Cochise College, a public, two-year institution that serves the residents of Cochise County from two campuses and four centers throughout Southern Arizona.
The partnership provides an opportunity for all Cochise associate degree alumni, staff, faculty, and employees’ family members to receive a tuition savings of up to $6450* per calendar year towards a bachelor’s degree** when they transfer to a flexible, online degree program at UAGC with weekly course start dates***.
Applications will be accepted beginning Monday, September 19, 2022, by visiting success.uagc.edu/cochise-college.
“Cochise College is committed to providing accessible education to the citizens of our county and we are excited about this agreement with The University of Arizona Global Campus,” Cochise College President J.D. Rottweiler said. “The partnership will allow our transfer students and college staff enhanced transfer resources to their degree programs with a negotiated tuition rate.” Dr. Rottweiler added, “We are incredibly proud of our progress and appreciate our ongoing partnership.”
As a partner of Cochise College, the University of Arizona Global Campus will continue to support Cochise students’ personal and academic growth in a program tailored to their unique needs and goals. And, additional savings are available for eligible student veterans as both Cochise and UAGC are prominent military-friendly schools that recognize and value the unique needs of students who are working on degrees while serving their country.
This partnership will help to enhance growth and services for many students interested in taking the next step in their education journey by obtaining a bachelor’s degree.
“We’re proud to partner with Cochise College by providing a path that makes it more accessible and affordable for Cochise students to continue their higher education,” UAGC President Paul Pastorek said. “These purposeful relationships will ease the transition from an associate degree to an online bachelor’s degree program, providing greater educational opportunities and services for students transferring between institutions.”
UAGC has 50+ programs benefit recipients can pursue through the Forbes School of Business and Technology® or the College of Arts and Sciences, providing adult learners with the flexibility, support, and a community to achieve the goals that will help them reach their fullest potential.
*$6,450 is bachelor’s tuition savings based on completing 30 credits per calendar year. Savings will be prorated if students complete less than 30 credits per calendar year.
