For the first time this fall, Housatonic Community College will host a four-year bachelor”™s degree, in an arrangement with Wheelock College in Boston.
Wheelock College is offering the final two years of a bachelor”™s degree program in human development at HCC”™s Bridgeport campus, accepting students with HCC associate”™s degrees in early childhood education.
HCC has transfer agreements in place with more than a dozen other schools, including Fairfield University; Sacred Heart University in Fairfield; the University of Bridgeport; the University of Connecticut Stamford; and Western Connecticut State University in Danbury. The Wheelock program marks the first time it has allowed students to complete a bachelor”™s degree on campus, however.
