Ivy Tech-Lafayette partners with St. Joseph's College to offer bachelor's degree program

Ivy Tech students will soon be able to earn a bachelor’s degree in business or accounting on the Lafayette campus.

The community college has entered into a partnership with St. Joseph’s College in Rensselear to allow Ivy Tech grads to transfer to Saint Joseph’s and complete a bachelor’s degree on the Ivy Tech campus.

Students entering the program this August would be enrolled as St. Joseph’s students and take classes at Ivy Tech taught by St. Joseph’s faculty.

Courses will be offered evenings twice a week.

Students will have access to Ivy Tech facilities and labs, as well as St. Joseph’s Robinson Library and other Rensselaer campus resources.

The partnership builds on one established in 2011 that allows Ivy Tech–Lafayette students to transfer into St. Joseph’s from business administration, criminal justice, education and liberal arts programs.
