UCM Direct Connect

 

 

UCM Direct Connect is a collaborative transfer opportunity that provides a seamless pathway from associate to bachelor’s degree. UCM is proud to partner with all community colleges that share a commitment to innovative education and student success. Through concurrent enrollment agreements, students enjoy a four-year education experience at UCM while taking advantage of the affordability and support community colleges provide.

 

 

 

 

 

UCM Direct Connect is open to students who meet Missouri residency requirements.

Students must typically enroll full-time (minimum 12 credit hours per semester) in the program with courses exclusively at their community college or at both UCM and their community college.

If a student takes courses at UCM, those courses will apply toward the major the student intends to pursue once admitted as a degree-seeking UCM student.
