ΒιΆΉΝψ is partnering with Pratt Community College (PCC) on an articulation agreement that allows students to seamlessly transfer credits from PCC to ΒιΆΉΝψ.
βThis agreement will allow a student who completes an associate degree at PCC to be accepted as a College of Business, Arts, Sciences and Education student at ΒιΆΉΝψ,β said Dr. Darcy Zabel, interim president of ΒιΆΉΝψ. βIt recognizes that PCC students have completed their general education requirements and are ready to pursue a bachelorβs degree at Friends.β

βWe are excited to have this agreement in place with ΒιΆΉΝψ, providing yet another opportunity for PCC students for seamless transfer. ΒιΆΉΝψ has a strong academic reputation and commitment to student success,β said Dr. Mike Calvert, president of Pratt Community College.
The articulation agreement was signed by Dr. Zabel and Dr. Calvert Nov. 11 at the ΒιΆΉΝψ campus in Wichita. The two institutions previously signed an articulation agreement last spring for PCC students who prefer to earn their bachelorβs degree by attending evening classes in the ΒιΆΉΝψ College of Adult and Professional Studies.
Pratt Community College is located in Pratt, Kansas. It offers both certificate and associateβs degrees and serves more than 3,000 students annually through on-campus and online classes.
