\"\"<\/a>Algoma University and Sault College announced new academic pathways to support enhanced student mobility between the College and the University.<\/p>\n

This expanded partnership between the two post-secondary institutions builds on the number of enhanced transfer pathways available to students who wish to complete a Sault College diploma and then seamlessly transition to Algoma U to complete a degree in a related area of study.<\/p>\n

Programs included in this \u201c2+1\u201d and \u201c2+2\u201d partnership (two years at Sault College and then one or two years at Algoma U) include:<\/p>\n

\u201cThis partnership supports learning and highlights our joint commitment to providing institution to institution pathway opportunities,\u201d said Sault College President Dr. Ron Common.

Algoma University President Asima Vezina mirrored Common\u2019s sentiments, saying she\u2019s proud to be part of this initiative. \u201cIt is essential that Algoma University and Sault College be leaders in our community, focusing on student success and future development,\u201d she said. \u201cProviding more options for post-secondary education is critical, especially in Northern Ontario.\u201d<\/p>\n
