Youngstown State Outlines Steps for Students From Eastern Gateway Community College To Enroll
Warren Scott Trending
In a letter sent via email to students at Eastern Gateway Community College last week, Youngstown State University announced a transition plan to easily allow EGCC students to transfer to YSU.
The Academic Senate met recently to review policies and procedures and voted unanimously to approve addendums to existing policies that removed barriers for students transferring to YSU from EGCC. This set the foundation for the process to facilitate a seamless transition for students to enroll and continue their education at YSU so that students can complete their programs.
Students currently enrolled at EGCC can begin the process of transferring to YSU by completing the application for admission at explore.ysu.edu/egcc. YSU has waived the application fee for EGCC students and has worked with EGCC to develop a simplified process for students to have their transcripts sent to YSU for free.
Students are encouraged to add YSU's school code (003145) to their FASFA application to ensure efficient processing of financial aid. Additional information can be found on YSU's financial aid and scholarships as well as a listing of various scholarships and financial aid opportunities.
Admissions representatives will be available in person at the EGCC Youngstown campus today and March 18. Additional opportunities will be communicated directly with EGCC students.
EGCC students who wish to transfer to YSU should visit explore.ysu.edu/egcc, call 330-941-2000 or email enroll@ysu.edu.
