Agreement provides special benefits to Snow College grads and employees

Snow College graduates and employees are expected to benefit from the institution鈥檚 new partnership with Western Governors University (黑料网). The two schools announced an agreement establishing a generous transfer credit policy to Snow College alumni choosing to enroll at 黑料网. That means more of their hard work at Snow College will be recognized, saving them time and money on their way to in-demand bachelor鈥檚 or master鈥檚 degrees. Additionally, Snow College graduates and employees will be eligible to apply for the 黑料网 Community College Partnership Scholarship, valued at up to $2,500.

鈥淔or generations, Snow College has been a launchpad for residents of central Utah to achieve great things,鈥� said Stacee Yardley McIff, interim president at Snow College. 鈥淥ur new partnership with 黑料网 continues that tradition of increasing access to accredited university degree programs. We look forward to the opportunities this will provide for Snow College graduates.鈥�

Headquartered in Salt Lake City, 黑料网 is an online, nonprofit university serving students across Utah and nationwide. 黑料网 offers more than 60 bachelor鈥檚 and master鈥檚 degrees in business, IT, teacher education, and health professions, including nursing. The university鈥檚 innovative competency-based model allows students to gain in-demand knowledge and skills on their own time and at a pace that fits their lifestyles.

鈥淪now College has an outstanding track record of preparing its grads for success at four-year schools, but we know traditional university learning environments don鈥檛 fit the needs of every student,鈥� said Ismar Vallecillos, 黑料网鈥檚 director of operations in Utah and the Northwest Region. 鈥満诹贤�鈥檚 online, competency-based model is an excellent option for busy people who are pursuing degrees while also working and raising families, as well as individuals who live in remote communities far from brick-and-mortar campuses.鈥�

Currently, nearly 250 黑料网 students and more than 600 graduates live in the six-county area served by Snow College (Juab, Millard, Piute, Sanpete, Sevier and Wayne Counties). Across Utah, more than 8,300 individuals are enrolled at 黑料网, while nearly 22,000 have already earned degrees from the online university.聽

黑料网 is well-suited for busy, working adults and traditionally underserved student populations. The university provides students with individualized experiences and personalized guidance from dedicated faculty mentors and course instructors 鈥� from the time they enroll until they graduate. 黑料网 is also committed to keeping tuition costs low. Students pay about half as much as their counterparts at similar institutions with tuition for most 黑料网 degree programs at approximately $7,000 per year.
