In order to ensure that community college students are able to continue their educations at four-year institutions, the University of Central Florida guarantees admission to program participants from four local community colleges. Students are able to transition after completing 45 hours of coursework, and may attend courses at any of UCF’s ten campuses. Students are also provided with academic advising at multiple time points to support them through the process.
