IRONWOOD AND MARQUETTE, MI— Northern Michigan University and Gogebic Community College have entered into an agreement that will provide a smooth pathway for transfer students to get a bachelor’s degree.
In the direct admission program, GCC students will be admitted to NMU during their time at GCC—that is, they will technically be at both institutions simultaneously. Officials say the program aims to eliminate barriers for transfer students, promote student wellbeing, enhance transfer student connections to the Marquette and campus community and guide efficient, effective student use of resources at both institutions.
GCC has created a permanent NMU satellite office on its Ironwood campus for NMU Admissions and recruitment events with academic departments.
GCC students will have access to academic and career advising, Lydia M. Olson Library privileges, a MyNMU account, an NMU email address, a free official transcript from GCC, and access to campus events and student life activities.
