Information about how to apply, application deadlines, and the scholarships themselves can all be found online. Schools & Pathways College students are more likely to complete a degree in a timely fashion if they choose a program and develop an academic plan early on. By having a clear road map of courses, students stay on track toward certificate or degree completion. Together with counselors, advisors, and faculty, students will receive guidance on completing their programs of study. Research on guided pathways suggests that an intentional and focused curriculum has the potential to save students money while improving student outcomes. The guided pathways approach helps students move through their general education requirements while focusing on specific certificate or degree requirements. Choose your school, choose your major, and use all of the resources on your successful pathway to graduation! The four academic schools found within Westchester Community College are: • School of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences • School of Business and Professional Careers • School of Health Careers, Technology and Applied Learning • School of Mathematics, Science and Engineering Sexual Violence Response and Support www.sunywcc.edu/titleix Westchester Community College values and respects the self-worth of all individuals in our community and affirms their right to have a safe, nonthreatening, and respectful environment.
