Articulation Agreements

Tokyo Metropolitan Chihaya High School

In an effort to better serve Japanese students intending to pursue education in the United States, Tokyo Metropolitan Chihaya High School and Greenville University entered into an agreement for a transfer alliance intended to benefit students at both institutions in February 2006. The agreement enables students completing specified courses at Tokyo Metropolitan Chihaya High School to receive transfer credit from Greenville University upon matriculation. The transfer credit will be articulated as stated below for students who achieve 4.0 grades for the listed courses.

Lincoln Land Community College

A “two-plus-two” plan allows students from Lincoln Land Community College (LLCC) to transfer credits from LLCC to Greenville University under a special articulation agreement between the two institutions. The agreement, signed by the presidents of both institutions in September 2007, enables students who complete an associate’s degree at LLCC to enter Greenville University and complete a bachelor’s degree in elementary education or special education in two additional years. Students matriculating to the GU program after completing academic and program requirements at LLCC, including a 2.75 Grade Point Average and a passing score on the Test of Academic Proficiency (TAP) Test will be admitted to the GU portion automatically. Students participating in the program will receive advisement from both institutions to assist them to complete the degree in a timely way. By participating in this program, credits earned in one institution are automatically transferred between institutions.

Saint Louis Christian College

A “two-plus-two” plan allows students from St. Louis Christian College (SLCC) to transfer credits from SLCC to Greenville University under a special articulation agreement between the two institutions. The agreement, signed by the presidents of both institutions in May 2002, enables students who complete the Associate of Arts General Studies degree at SLCC to enter Greenville University and normally complete a bachelor’s degree program in two additional years. SLCC students who enroll in this cooperative program at SLCC will complete 40 credit hours in general education, 20 credit hours in Biblical education, and five credit hours in professional education. Students then enter Greenville University with junior-level standing. Further information may be obtained by contacting the admissions office of either institution.
