Wilmington University - Guaranteed Admission Agreement

PREFACE
Delaware County Community College and Wilmington University enter into this Guaranteed Transfer Agreement so that students enrolled in an Associate's degree program, either A.A.,
A.S., A.A.S, or A.F.A., from Delaware County Community College will be admitted into a related Bachelor's degree program at Wilmington University. This new articulation supersedes
the 2010 Guaranteed Admissions Agreement. 

Students who transfer into unrelated degree programs may transfer but are likely to require prerequisites.

• This agreement guarantees eligible Delaware County Community College Associate's degree graduates admission into a Bachelor's degree program with junior status at Wilmington University under the conditions that students: 1) graduate from Delaware County Community College in an Associate's degree program that parallels the intended major at Wilmington University (see Attachment A), 2) complete other regular admissions requirements as determined by Wilmington University (application, official Delaware County Community College transcript and official transcripts from all other institutions attended, medical form [as required for full-time students]), 3) complete an Intent to Enroll form prior to earning 45 college transferrable credits from Delaware County Community College, and 4) earn a "C" or better grade in all transferrable courses. 
• Delaware County Community College students may transfer up to 75 college credits to Wilmington University. Forty-five credits must be taken at Wilmington University (online or on-campus) and 45 credits must be at the upper level (300 and 400). Students transferring to a bachelor's degree program in the same field in which they earned their associate degree will have all of their credits (up to 75) accepted. However, students who switch their field of study may be required to take appropriate pre-requisites.

Delaware County Community College and Wilmington University agree to the following:

admission to Wilmington University and must apply for admission under the regular transfer admissions process.
5. Each institution will designate a representative who will coordinate and monitor the Guaranteed Transfer Agreement. Those representatives will communicate about program
changes as needed.
