What is a Joint Admission Agreement?
Joint Admissions Programs provide an opportunity for ECC students to complete a two-year degree at Essex and also be guaranteed admissions to a four-year college. Students must follow a specific course of study and graduate from an eligible program of study at ECC with the required cumulative grade point average (GPA). Joint Admission Programs have very specific requirements and are not meant for every student. They are generally designed for students who are just beginning their college work and have selected one major and one specific college that they plan to attend. To find out if you are eligible for joint admission the student must complete the Intent to Transfer form available on the website or in the Transfer Center. (Rm. 4100) Students who do not meet the Joint admission eligibility requirements or who are unsure of their major or choice of four-year colleges or Universities can always continue at ECC and transfer through the traditional transfer.
