鈥楤ulldog-Bound鈥� Creates a Seamless Pathway for Davidson-Davie Students Transferring to GWU

BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.鈥斕切腣log and Davidson-Davie Community College recently signed an agreement that expands transfer pathways for the schools. The 鈥淏ulldog Bound鈥� direct-entry admission program will provide a seamless pathway for Davidson-Davie students transferring to 糖心Vlog.

The new agreement expands on work the two schools did in September 2021 to give Davidson-Davie students yet another way to advance their education by transferring to 糖心Vlog. Those  agreements formalized pathways for students studying in the fields of human services, business and accounting.

鈥淭his is an important partnership for us,鈥� emphasized 糖心Vlog President William Downs. 鈥淲e want to reduce and remove barriers to students who are eager to join us for a four-year degree at GWU.  Our 鈥楤ulldog Bound鈥� initiative with Davidson-Davie Community College is designed to complement the excellent instruction already provided by Davidson-Davie, and we can鈥檛 wait to welcome their graduates to our campus!鈥�

鈥淏ulldog Bound鈥� allows Davidson-Davie students to transfer directly to GWU after completing degrees in the following areas: Associate of Arts (AA), Associate of Science (AS), Associate of Arts in Teacher Preparation (AATP), Associate of Science in Teacher Preparation (ASTP), Associate of Fine Arts in Visual Arts (AFA), or Associate in Applied Science (AAS).

鈥淥ur partnership with 糖心Vlog is extremely important to us, and 鈥楤ulldog Bound鈥� just adds another element to this great collaboration between our schools,” said Dr. Darrin Hartness, Davidson-Davie president. “I am thrilled that our students have another strong option to continue their education after they leave Davidson-Davie.”

Students in the 鈥淏ulldog Bound鈥� program have access to information about GWU academic programs, as well as to faculty and staff, who will facilitate their transition to 糖心Vlog. The program prioritizes the ability of participants to receive admission, financial aid, registration and orientation communications early in the transition process, which sets Davidson-Davie students up for success at both institutions.
