Why does your college feel that it is important to offer a scholarship opportunity for members?

The mission of the University of Arizona Global Campus is to provide high-quality, accessible, affordable, and innovative educational programs that meet the diverse needs of individuals pursuing advancement in their lives, professions and communities. PTK members have proven that they value higher education and UAGC wants to make advancing their education as accessible as possible for members, employees (and their immediate family members), as well as volunteer chapter PTK Advisors.

What other opportunities are available for transfer students at your institution to assist them in successfully transitioning from a community college?

The generous UAGC transfer policy allows students to apply up to 90 approved transfer credits towards a bachelor’s degree (subject to UAGC’s transfer credit policies), saving them time and money.

Students will follow the Sponsored Professional Training option to pursue these credits.

UAGC is proud to have an active PTK Chapter, Beta Tau Chi, for all members and alumni attending UAGC.

PTK alumni will receive support from application to graduation with dedicated enrollment coaches and academic advisors to assist them throughout their journey, seven days a week, and 24/7 access to the UAGC online Writing Center and Library.
