Sam Houston State University and the Lone Star College System, or LSCS, celebrated their renewed agreement to facilitate students’ transfer from any of the Lone Star College campuses to SHSU at a signing ceremony on October 28th. On top of celebrating the continued collaboration between SHSU and LSCS, the event brought in other universities partnering with LSCS through Guaranteed Transfer Partnership, or GTPA.
The agreement between SHSU and LSCS provides the framework to continue developing transfer degree plans, offer a Bearkat Transfer Scholarship to eligible SHSU applicants and establish the Bearkat Bound Program to create specialized pathways, including fee waivers and scholarships for members of the LSC Honor College or LSC Global Scholars program to join SHSU and its Elliot T. Bowers College.
