Articulation Agreements


Pierpont’s mission includes preparing students for transfer to other institutions of higher education.  The Office of Academic Affairs coordinates partnerships with other institutions of higher education and partners with the public school system to transition high school and career & technical education (CTE) students to Pierpont.
