Case-Study: FGCU's Legal Studies Bachelor of Science Online Program

Overview Many states have geographical areas that do not have four-year schools, or whose two-year colleges do not offer particular majors of interest. In Florida the State Legislature has attempted to solve these problems by allowing two-year institutions to offer four-year degrees under certain circumstances. The Statewide Articulation Agreement between the Florida State University System (SUS) and the Division of Community Colleges governs the transfer of students who have earned an associate degree. State laws now provide the means for associate degree holders to transfer within the state without fancy agreements or red tape.
