What is a 2+2 transfer pathway?

This is a pathway to a bachelor’s degree that involves taking approximately 60 semester credit hours of community college courses (the associate degree) and approximately 60 semester credit hours of university courses (leading to a bachelor's degree). This allows you to save money by paying the community college tuition rate for approximately half of the total credit hours.
