CCAC and Chatham Streamline path for CCAC students to Earn Bachelor’s Degree
Chatham University and the Community College of Allegheny County (CCAC) recently signed a new articulation agreement, which gives students clear and efficient pathways to 10 four-year degree programs by completing their first two years at CCAC and finishing their education at Chatham.
The agreement comes amid three straight years of increasing enrollment at community colleges nationwide and will allow students in Allegheny County to continue their education, increase career opportunities, and save money while obtaining a bachelor’s degree from Chatham University.
The degrees in the program include:
A Bachelor of Arts in Criminology degree at Chatham after studying Criminal Justice and Criminology at CCAC
Bachelor of Arts in Psychology after Psychology at CCAC
Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) after Social Work Foundation at CCAC
Bachelor of Science in Biology (with concentrations in Human Biology or Cell and Molecular Biology) after Biology at CCAC
Bachelor of Science in Neuroscience after Biology at CCAC
Bachelor of Science in Chemistry or Biochemistry after Chemistry at CCAC
Bachelor of Arts in Accounting after Accounting at CCAC
Bachelor of Arts in Management after Business at CCAC
*Additional majors are under review and may be added to this list.
Eligible students in good standing who complete these CCAC associate’s degrees with an intent to transfer to Chatham will be granted acceptance. Chatham will accept up to 90 credits from CCAC transfers and work one-on-one with students to ensure a smooth transition. CCAC students will be eligible for generous merit and need-based aid to help them reach their educational goals.
Chatham University is proud to partner with CCAC, adding to the long history of cooperation between these two Pittsburgh institutions.
