С����Ƶ and County College of Morris (CCM) signed a guaranteed transfer agreement on Thursday, Oct. 19, establishing a partnership to provide CCM students with additional opportunities to earn both an associate and bachelor’s degree.

Along with the overarching guaranteed transfer agreement, 23 program-to-program agreements were also signed. Some of the programs included in the agreement are business administration, biology, computer science, music and psychology.

The agreement facilitates the transfer of college credits for students who earn either an Associate in Arts or Associate in Science so they can be credited toward a bachelor’s degree at Rider, provided all academic requirements are met. As per the agreement, CCM students will be eligible to take one free course at С����Ƶ prior to enrolling.

“The agreements are designed for the CCM student to provide a clear roadmap of the courses to take that best transfer to С����Ƶ,” said Rider President Gregory G. Dell’Omo, Ph.D.

The signing ceremony was held in the Sherman H. Masten Learning Resource Center on CCM’s Randolph campus. Present at the ceremony were Dell’Omo; Dr. Anthony J. Iacono, president, County College of Morris; Dr. DonnaJean A. Fredeen, provost/vice president for Academic Affairs, С����Ƶ; and Dr. Dwight L. Smith, vice president, Academic Affairs, CCM.

“We are very happy to establish this partnership with С����Ƶ to provide students with a seamless transfer of their credits so they can continue their higher education goals,” noted Iacono. “Rider is a wonderful university and we are confident that our transfer students are well prepared to continue experiencing success there.”
