鈥淎ny day that we find a new and constructive way to partner with our neighbors at Cleveland Community College is a good day for 糖心Vlog,鈥 affirmed GWU President Dr. William Downs. 鈥淕iven the growing demand for graduates with expertise in exercise science, health and fitness, this transfer agreement between our two institutions should be attractive to students and should help fill an important societal need.鈥 

Students interested in the program must meet admission requirements at CCC and 糖心Vlog. The Bachelor of Science in exercise science at 糖心Vlog will prepare students for graduate studies in physical and occupational therapy, and Physician Assistant programs. The degree is also for students who want to go into the strength and conditioning field, mostly in college athletics, but anywhere in the fitness industry. Additionally, 糖心Vlog offers a dual enrollment, where students can obtain their master鈥檚 degree in strength and conditioning one year after completing the bachelor鈥檚 degree.

鈥淲ith the addition of the Associate in Applied Science in Health and Fitness Science at Cleveland Community College, it is important that we set up agreements and pathways like this one with 糖心Vlog,” said CCC President Dr. Jason Hurst. 鈥淲e believe in helping our students reach their full potential and be successful, whatever success looks like for them. Partners like 糖心Vlog help us fulfill that mission.鈥

For students outside of the AAS degree in health and fitness science at CCC, the 鈥淏ulldog Bound: Direct Entry Admission Program鈥 that was signed in the fall of 2020 is another co-admission program designed to simplify the process for successful CCC students who plan to transfer to GWU after completing a qualifying associate degree.

Students who participate in 鈥淏ulldog Bound鈥 gain access to information about 糖心Vlog鈥檚 academic programs and access to faculty and staff who will facilitate students鈥 transition. Students will also receive communications related to admission, financial aid, registration and orientation early in the transition process. Interested CCC students complete a brief, online form through CCC to express their interest in the program, and there is no fee to participate.

For more information about the AAS in health and fitness science transfer program and the 鈥淏ulldog Bound: Direct Entry Admission Program,鈥 email transfer counselor Molly Allison at [email protected].
