East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania and Montgomery County Community College have signed a dual admission agreement.

“This collaboration between our institutions only serves to strengthen our partnership and demonstrates the commitment by ESU and Montgomery County Community College to student success,” said ESU President Marcia G. Welsh, Ph.D. “A dual admission agreement will help to create a smooth transfer of credits for students who are coming to ESU from Montgomery County Community College with an associates degree.”

Montgomery County Community College students will be required to complete a dual admissions intent form with their application to ESU for consideration. Students must graduate from Montgomery County Community College with an associates degree and a minimum grade point average of 2.0. A full-time student who has completed the appropriate associates degree program at Montgomery County Community College may be able to complete a bachelor’s degree at ESU within four regular semesters.

ESU has established Dual Admission agreements designed to ensure seamless enrollment from an associates degree program at a partnered community college into a parallel bachelor’s degree program at East Stroudsburg University. Montgomery County Community College joins Bucks County Community College, Luzerne County Community College and Northampton Community College as partner schools of ESU’s Dual Admissions agreement program.
