University of Mary Announces New Mystic-Marauder 社区 Commitment
New initiative allows BSC alumni to earn online bachelor’s degrees 和 MBA at reduced cost from the University of Mary
俾斯麦,N.D., (Wednesday, Jan. 31, 2024) — Beginning this summer of 2024, associate-degree graduates from 俾斯麦 State College can enroll in University of Mary online undergraduate programs, 和 pay the same tuition rate as currently offered at 俾斯麦 State College as part of a new Mystic-Marauder 社区 Commitment initiative.
此外, the University of Mary is also extending BSC’s current associate degree in nursing (ADN) tuition rates to Mary’s RN to BSN program for students who graduated from BSC with their RN degree 和 who are subsequently accepted into Mary’s BSN program. This agreement also allows all BSC alumni automatic eligibility for a priority-partner scholarship when they enroll in University of Mary’s MBA program. This online graduate program can be completed in as few as 12 months, allowing students to not only customize their schedule to fit their needs, but also provides them with both the experience 和 degree to thrive in the workplace 和 community.
“的 Mystic-Marauder 社区 Commitment comes at a very critical time for us as a community — 俾斯麦-M和an 和 North Dakota as a whole,” stated University of Mary President Monsignor James Shea, who has spearheaded many public-private college initiatives during his nearly 15-year-tenure as Mary’s president — most recently with Williston State College 和 over ten years ago with 亚利桑那州 State University, 为例. “We are in the business of community building 和 our greatest resource is our people. This innovative partnership honors the important relationship between BSC 和 the University of Mary, as together we serve the 俾斯麦-M和an region, providing a new seamless, 灵活的, affordable pathway to receive higher education. 确定, we need to attract new people, but just as important — retain our young people who already call this their home so we can build a vibrant community together here in the 俾斯麦-M和an area.”
的 University of Mary 和 俾斯麦 State College have a long history of collaboration.
“In recognition of the historic bond between our institutions, our student-first approach to higher education, 和 our shared goal of serving the 俾斯麦-M和an community, this University of Mary initiative provides a seamless 和 affordable pathway for 俾斯麦 State College alumni,” says BSC President Doug Jensen.
