WINTERVILLE - An agreement between Pitt Community College and Fayetteville State University is making a smooth path between the two schools for PCC Criminal Justice students in search of a bachelor’s degree.
According to Darnette Hall, FSU’s Educational Consultant/Community College Coordinator, PCC students can complete 90 of the 120 credit hours required for a Criminal Justice bachelor’s degree at Pitt before taking the final 30 hours online through Fayetteville State.
FSU administrators, Hall said, have identified a list of PCC courses commensurate with classes the university requires of its Criminal Justice students. She explained that students take their 100- and 200-level courses for an associate degree at Pitt before moving on to complete 300- and 400-level classes at Fayetteville State for a bachelor’s degree.
Hall said current PCC Criminal Justice students can take advantage of the agreement as well as graduates of the program who want to continue their studies.
Students who take advantage of the PCC-FSU partnership save 75 percent on the cost of four-year Criminal Justice degree from Fayetteville State, Hall said, noting that community college tuition is considerably less than that of a university.
Hall visits the PCC campus several times each year to answer questions about the Pitt-FSU Criminal Justice articulation. For PCC students and Criminal Justice graduates who are interested in a four-year Criminal Justice degree from Fayetteville State, Hall can be reached by e-mail at dlhall01@uncfsu.edu, or by telephone at (910) 672-1495 (office) and (910) 391-2585 (cell).
