Set on your success

Our graduate school partnerships allow qualified students direct access to a quality graduate education in areas we do not offer on our campus. Sometimes, this means early access – as in 3+1 or 3+2 programs that actually allow you to start grad school when you are still an undergraduate at ÌìÑĺ£½ÇÉçÇø, and this usually means that you save money by paying our undergraduate tuition and not someone else’s graduate tuition.

Our Graduate School Partners

LE MOYNE COLLEGE OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY PROGRAM

Le Moyne College will save up to three seats a year for qualified students who are accepted into their program. This is a 4+2 program, meaning that you will complete your ÌìÑĺ£½ÇÉçÇø degree, including some important prerequisite courses for this program, and then begin your work at Le Moyne after graduation.  Occupational Therapy is a growing career option for anyone who wants to help people cope with physical challenges that prevent them from doing some everyday things.
