Southern Wesleyan University recently signed a course articulation agreement with a Canadian Wesleyan institution, opening the doors for enhanced transfer opportunities.
This agreement, signed by Southern Wesleyan University’s President Dr. Todd Voss and Kingswood University’s President Dr. Stephen J. Lennox, will assist and promote transferability into the Core Curriculum at Southern Wesleyan for graduates of the Associate of Arts degree at Kingswood, as well as for students who do not graduate from Kingswood but wish to have their courses evaluated for transfer credit at Southern Wesleyan. The Core Curriculum, according to Janice Hartsoe, Southern Wesleyan’s registrar, refers to freshman and sophomore level general education requirements and other required courses that are taught from a Christian perspective and serve as the curricular framework for all academic disciplines.
“SWU is excited to partner in this more formal way with Kingswood University! We are working hard to support Kingswood students in any way we can and appreciate the warm and welcome spirit coming from our brothers and sisters in the North,” said Voss.
Kingswood University is located in the Canadian province of New Brunswick in Sussex, and, like Southern Wesleyan, is owned by The Wesleyan Church and offers a deep Bible College experience for students studying for the ministry.
“This articulation agreement between the two Wesleyan universities recognizes the high academic standards and Christ-centered education in both institutions,” said SWU Provost Dr. Tonya Strickland.
Southern Wesleyan University is a Christ-centered, student-focused learning community devoted to transforming lives by challenging students to be dedicated scholars and servant-leaders who impact the world for Christ. For details about degree programs, go online to swu.edu.
