Press Release:

    Raleigh, N.C.     Governor Pat McCrory issued the following statement after the State Board of Community Colleges and University of North Carolina Board of Governors today signed a revised Comprehensive Articulation Agreement (CAA) between the two public higher education systems, making college transfer options more defined and easier to follow.

    "Today is a great day for the students of North Carolina. Thanks to the teamwork of North Carolina's community colleges and public universities, thousands of students will attain their degrees faster and at a fraction of the cost," said Governor McCrory. "I came to office promising that we were going to break down the silos in education, and this clear and concise plan is a powerful example of this. I want to thank Community College President Scott Ralls and UNC President Tom Ross for their leadership and collaboration in coming to this historic agreement. When we focus on the interest of students, amazing things can happen. The Comprehensive Articulation Agreement is a shining example of this."

    Broadly, the articulation agreement identifies courses that will transfer to all UNC campuses to meet general education requirements. It also encourages community college students to complete an AA or AS degree before transferring to a UNC campus by guaranteeing entry as juniors with full transfer credit.
