Stump the Transfer Advisor!

Dear Transfer Advisor,

I love Montgomery College and to be honest, I really don't want to leave. I've heard a rumor that MC is going to offer four-year degrees, is this true?

Dear Maria,

If we had a nickel for every time counselors have heard this question... well, you may have seen the pile of nickels on my desk. MC will not be offering four-year, bachelor's degrees in the known future. HOWEVER, the good news is that you CAN earn a four-year degree while staying in Montgomery County through the Universities at Shady Grove. http://www.shadygrove.umd.edu/programs/undergraduate/

Nine different universities offer the programs below at the Shady Grove Campus, located at the intersection of Shady Grove Road and Route 28, just past Shady Grove Hospital. If you enroll in one of these programs, your diploma will read, "Towson University" or whichever school offers the program, not "Universities at Shady Grove." There are many exciting majors offered, check them out!

New Programs at USG:

B.S. in Early Childhood Education (Towson University)
B.A. in History (UMBC)
B.S. in Public Health (UMCP)
B.S. in Respiratory Therapy (Salisbury University)
