Inside FDU on the Web — April/May 2003



Northampton Community College, First Out-of-State Burgundy-Blue Connection

For the first time, Fairleigh Dickinson University has signed a “Burgundy-Blue Connection” dual admissions agreement with an institution outside New Jersey.

In March, Northampton Community College (NCC), Bethlehem, Pa., and FDU established the admissions agreement that allows students to complete their associate’s degree in any course of study at NCC, followed by a bachelor’s degree from FDU. The program is open to all graduates of high schools in Northampton and Monroe counties.

Fairleigh Dickinson provides an academic adviser to NCC students, and they are eligible to participate in FDU’s six-month cooperative education work experience program in those majors where it is available.

Northampton Community College was established more than 30 years ago and offers 60 transfer and career programs.

The “Burgundy-Blue Connection” is now available to students at 12 community colleges.
