An innovative new partnership will help local students stay in Brunswick County to complete some of the college studies they previously had to pursue out of the area.
On Monday, BCC and the University of North Carolina Wilmington announced a new partnership that will allow students to finish the final two years of their elementary education degrees in Brunswick County.
The program will allow students to study at BCC’s Leland Center instead of having to travel to Wilmington to UNCW.
Anything that can be done to help make a higher education more accessible to more students is a good thing.
Thanks to BCC and UNCW officials for this progressive plan.
