Building on a strategy first adopted by the University of Virginia, Southern New Hampshire University is offering Germanna Community College students an easier way to transfer credit and complete their undergraduate degree online at SNHU.

Germanna and SNHU recently announced their partnership, which provides degree transfer opportunities between the two higher education institutions. Germanna recently signed a similar deal with U.Va.

Under this agreement, Germanna students will be able to transfer up to 90 credits and complete their degree online with Southern New Hampshire University.

GCC President Janet Gullickson welcomed the deal, which allows Germanna students to transfer to one of the fastest growing institutions in the country with more than 200 undergraduate and graduate degrees affordable online. And they can do it without leaving their homes, Gullickson noted.

Because SNHU is accredited with the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, all college courses in which students earn a grade of “C-” or higher are fully transferable based on course equivalents, Germanna said in a statement. .

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Germanna learned that the flexibility of online learning was “not only appealing to many students, but helping families,” Gullickson said. “The growth of online learning will make higher education more accessible and affordable nationwide.”

Germanna’s new College Everywhere program, which accelerates all online degrees, has been a big success, officials said. allows its students to complete a two-year degree in one year.

To date, 68% of College Everywhere students have achieved a 3.0 to 4.0 grade point average. Of the remaining Germanna students, 55% fell within this GPA range.

Based on the New Hampshire agreement, eligible Germanna graduates, employees, and employees’ immediate family members (spouse, domestic partners, children, siblings, and parents) will receive a 10% reduction in tuition fees for SNHU online programs. The agreement also provides for a waiver of application fees for the SNHU.

“At SNHU, we partner with a number of community colleges across the country to help students continue their education, and we are proud to partner with Germanna Community College,” said Dr. Jennifer Batchelor, Vice President principal of the university. “Through this new partnership, thousands of learners will have the opportunity to seamlessly transfer their credits to SNHU and continue their educational journey.”
