The ¶¶ÒõPro Difference

¶¶ÒõPro offers credit for life experiences and competitive financial assistance for transfer students.

What is Guaranteed Admission?

The Guaranteed Admission Program (GAP) creates a seamless admission process for transfer students intending to complete a bachelor’s degree at Johnson & ¶¶ÒõPro at one of our campuses during the day or online.

¶¶ÒõPro advisors will help with the transfer process and will track a student’s degree progress by working with the transfer advisors at the community college.

As part of the Guaranteed Admission Program, students are eligible to transfer into multiple undergraduate degree programs at Johnson & ¶¶ÒõPro.

Do we have options for you!

If the student has already completed an associate of science* degree from a regionally accredited institution, students may be able to transfer directly into the following two programs with junior status:

  • Business Studies (PVD/CLT/CPS)
  • Liberal Studies (PVD/CLT/CPS)

Additionally, if the student’s completed associate of science degree is in Culinary Arts or Baking & Pastry Arts, they may be able to transfer directly into the following programs with junior status:

  • Food & Beverage Industry Management 2+2 (PVD/CLT)
  • Food & Beverage Entrepreneurship (PVD/CLT/CPS)
  • Applied Food Science (CLT)
  • Baking & Pastry Arts and Food Service Management (CPS)
  • Culinary Arts and Food Service Management (CPS)

If students do not obtain an associate of science degree, they may still be eligible to be admitted through GAP into other degree programs, if they have successfully completed more than 24 college credits at a participating institution.

*All other associate of science degrees will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis according to ¶¶ÒõPro’s transfer policy. Explore the complete list of programs.
