If you plan to pursue a bachelor’s degree after completing your associate’s degree, you can benefit from one of CSM-UMUC alliances.

You can register for classes at both institutions simultaneously or move back and forth between institutions from one semester to the next. You can take classes at any of the CSM or UMUC sites in Maryland and the Washington, D.C. area. The CSM-UMUC Waldorf Center for Higher Education offers many of the courses, student services, and technology of both institutions at one convenient location. Areas of study at CSM are linked to related majors at UMUC, so you can enjoy a seamless transition from your associate’s to your bachelor’s degree.
