SYRACUSE — Onondaga Community College (OCC) announced four new agreements this week, including some that will allow students to more easily continue their studies elsewhere.
Under one agreement, Columbia College will accept an OCC degree as satisfaction of the school’s general education requirements. Students who complete an associate’s degree at OCC will be approved for admission to Columbia, which has a campus in Syracuse in addition to other locations around the country.
OCC also announced an agreement with Sage College of Albany. The agreement is designed to help qualified OCC students transfer into the graphic and media design bachelor’s program at Sage.
