ARTICULATION AGREEMENT FOR BACHELORS OF ARTS DEGREE IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE BETWEEN LARAMIE COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE
AND UNIVERSITY OF WYOMING
OVERVIEW:
This formal program articulation agreement is made and entered into by Laramie County Community College, hereinafter referred to as LCCC, and University of Wyoming, hereinafter referred to as UW. By this agreement LCCC and UW express a shared commitment to increasing opportunities for student access to and success in higher education.
PURPOSE:
This agreement provides students who have completed the Associate of Arts degree with articulated coursework in Criminal Justice the opportunity to complete a Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice degree at UW. Any LCCC student who has earned an Associate of Arts degree with coursework that adheres to the guidelines within this agreement is guaranteed that UW will: 1) apply the relevant general education credits; 2) accept designated major related credits; and 3) give the student UW class standing consistent with the articulated curriculum herein and in a manner consistent with the treatment of native UW students in the Bachelor of Arts degree.
CONDITIONS OF TRANSFER:
Section I: Admissions and Matriculation LCCC students maintaining continuous enrollment under this agreement and following the curriculum plan in place under the LCCC catalog of record will matriculate to the UW academic program in place for that catalog year. A break in enrollment that is not a summer semester may cause the student to be readmitted under a different catalog year. In that case, this articulation agreement may not remain valid.
Criteria for acceptance into UW A11s and Sciences will be consistent with the criteria outlined in the institutional articulation agreement between LCCC and UW.
LCCC, upon request of students, will provide verification of completed courses to UW through its Office of Registration and Records.
Transfer students from LCCC will have access to financial aid, scholarships, and student services on a similar basis as native students.
UW will apply the same academic progress and graduation standards to LCCC transfer students as are applicable to native UW students in the same catalog year.
Section II: Program Plan While a course-by-course equivalence was used in the development of this plan, this agreement presumes that the general education core requirements at LCCC meet general education requirements at UW under the statewide block transfer articulation agreement. Students falling under this program articulation agreement will be responsible for successfully completing the additional program core requirements as noted in section below.
