密苏里州开普吉拉多（Cape Girardeau），东南密苏里州立大学（SEMO）与矿区学院（Mineral Area College）10月30日签署合作协议，为社区学院学生搭建一条通向四年制学位的通道。东南密苏里州立大学公布了这项协议。
根据协议，矿区学院学生在修读文学副学士学位期间即可入住东南密苏里州立大学宿舍、融入该校社区生活；完成副学士学位并达到学术要求后，可保证转入文学副学士学位对应项目，以大三身份继续攻读学士学位。正式的学分衔接协议将保证副学士学分获得承认。
矿区学院院长 Joe Gilgour 表示，这一协议是落实教育可及愿景的范例，旨在拆掉障碍，让学生踏上四年制教育之路。两校表示，学生按新协议规划学业，可以在保证学分的前提下稳步推进，避免转学后重修课程造成的延误与额外开支。
SEMO and Mineral Area College Sign Transfer Pathway Agreement
CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. — Southeast Missouri State University (SEMO) and Mineral Area College (MAC) signed a partnership agreement on October 30 creating a structured pathway for community college students to earn a bachelor's degree, SEMO announced.
Under the agreement, MAC students working toward an associate degree can live in SEMO residence halls and take part in campus life while progressing toward the milestones for a bachelor's degree. After completing their associate degree and meeting SEMO's academic requirements, students transition with junior standing, and a formal articulation agreement guarantees transfer of the Associate of Arts degree.
MAC President Joe Gilgour called the agreement an example of expanding access to affordable, quality education by removing barriers. Both schools said the pathway lets students plan their studies with guaranteed transfer credits, avoiding the delays and added costs of retaking courses after transfer.
