ECC joins NC State’s Wolfpack Connect
Edgecombe Community College has joined other NC community colleges in an exciting new transfer opportunity with NC State University called Wolfpack Connect. The Guaranteed Admissions Agreement will ensure that students who complete an Associate in Arts or Associate in Science degree at ECC will be admitted to NC State University.
At the start of their participation, ECC students should have at least one year of coursework remaining, comparable to 30 transferable college credits or less. Prospective transfers may also choose from more than 100 majors and concentrations offered through Wolfpack Connect.
Once accepted into the Wolfpack Connect program, students must complete their associate degree, maintaining a minimum grade point average of 3.0. Transfer admission deadlines and requirements as outlined by NC State must also be met.
“This collaborative agreement provides our students with an affordable and accessible pathway to earn a four-year degree from a premier university that is close to home,” said Dr. Greg McLeod, president of ECC. “We always strive to ensure that our college transfer students are presented with strong, seamless options as they continue their educational journey.”
Wolfpack Connect is one of several pathways ECC has secured to help students transfer from a community college to a four-year institution. Key transfer and guaranteed admission partnerships continue to offer benefits for ECC students through agreements with East Carolina University, Elizabeth City State University, Fayetteville State University, NC Wesleyan University and UNC Wilmington.
