PREPARING YUMA HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS FOR MATRICULATION TO ARIZONA WESTERN COLLEGE AND FOR TRANSFER TO STATE UNIVERSITIES

The Communication Division at Arizona Western College promotes Early College Experience and transfer to our university partners with Articulation Agreements with these high schools, as well as support for placing additional college faculty in the high school setting. Our Division also advocates for our local communities by supporting students who desire to become educators through transfer partnerships for state universities. In particular, we are preparing these future educators by supporting ASU@AWC’s degree program in Secondary Education, which completes our pipeline. By capturing the attention and imagination of high school students today, we are preparing Yuma’s future educators.

About AZTransfer

FOR MORE THAN 20 YEARS, academic leaders from each of Arizona’s public postsecondary institutions have collaborated to support transfer student success. Known as the AZTransfer Steering Committee, this coordinating body ensures Arizona’s students have access to efficient, seamless, and simple ways to transfer from a community college to a university in Arizona. Born out of legislation passed in 1996, the AZTransfer Steering Committee works to fulfill a promise to provide high-quality educational pathways that lead to baccalaureate degree completion for all Arizonans.
