A partnership between LCC and the University of Colorado Colorado Springs (UCCS) allows LCC students to complete their work for bachelor degree programs through UCCS.
Available degree options include a Registered Nurse to Bachelor of Science in Nursing; Criminal Justice and Business Administration.
The RN-to-BSN Dual Enrollment Program is designed for students enrolled in, or who have completed the LCC Associate's degree program in Nursing. UCCS's Beth-El College of Nursing and Health Sciences offers courses specifically tailored for RNs.
The goal of the program is to facilitate the continued growth of a well-rounded professional nurse able to actively participate in our rapidly changing health care environment by completing the Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
Criminal Justice is a broad and increasingly interdisciplinary field.
LCC students completing an Associate of General Studies-Criminal Justice degree can now complete their Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice from UCCS. The program utilizes an innovative virtual approach to capture both academic liberal arts emphasis and the professional and policy knowledge required in today's criminal justice professionals.
For the LCC student getting an Associate of Arts-Business Articulation degree, UCCS offers a complete, online Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, fully accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).
Students can complete the degree without leaving home, while still benefiting from LCC's supportive environment.
LCC will provide the personal, academic, and instructional support necessary to ensure student success.
Support services will be easily available to all LCC/UCCS students free of charge and will include: library resources, tutoring support, developmental skill building, ESL instruction, counseling, career assessment, transfer assistance, and cultural enrichment activities.
UCCS and LCC have also partnered to employ a UCCS Student Services Coordinator/Diversity Recruiter for the LCC campus. This position assists students in making a smart start at LCC and a smooth transition into UCCS coursework and completion, including advanced degrees.
Current students and anyone contemplating attending LCC who are interested in learning more about the partnership are encouraged to contact Sharon Grasmick at 719-336-1626 or email@example.com.
