Officials at St. Louis Community College and the University of Missouri-St. Louis recently signed an agreement that allows students to be admitted to and enrolled at both institutions at the same time.

 

Students who participate in the UMSL-STLCC Dual Admissions program (DAP) will maximize transfer credit, enjoy access to resources at both institutions through both degree programs, and receive advising and support services at UMSL or on STLCC’s campuses as they pursue the associate and baccalaureate degrees.

 

"When students are focused on where they are going, they achieve at a higher level," said Zelema Harris, STLCC chancellor. "This program is so important to our students because the University of Missouri-St. Louis is the transfer institution of choice for most STLCC students."

 

STLCC students who fulfill the DAP requirements and meet certain departmental requirements for specific majors are guaranteed acceptance into UMSL with full junior status.

 

"The University of Missouri-St. Louis and St. Louis Community College have a strong tradition of working together," said Tom George, UMSL chancellor. "This relationship has resulted in benefits for many students, the community and both institutions."
