SALISBURY, Md. – Wor-Wic Community College is advancing its commitment to student success by joining the Maryland Transfer Intensive program, a statewide initiative designed to streamline pathways for students seeking bachelor’s degrees. Over the next seven years, Wor-Wic will collaborate with 24 other colleges to improve transfer processes and increase opportunities for students aiming to enter Maryland’s workforce with advanced credentials. The program aims to make higher education more accessible and efficient across the state. Wor-Wic Community College President Dr. Deborah Casey emphasized the significance of this partnership, stating the program aligns with the college’s mission to support local students, strengthen Maryland’s workforce, and bolster the state’s higher education system. Currently, Wor-Wic offers transfer pathways specifically for engineering and nursing programs at the University of Maryland College Park. The Transfer Intensive will expand these options, providing students with broader access to bachelor’s degree programs throughout Maryland. This initiative places Wor-Wic alongside Salisbury University as one of the Eastern Shore institutions participating in the Maryland Transfer Intensive, further solidifying the region’s role in state-wide educational advancement.
