In addition, this Agreement contributes to Maryland Higher Education Commission's completion initiative by increasing associate degree attainment and providing momentum for baccalaureate completion. This Agreement sets expectations for the parties, administrators, faculty and staff at both institutions, and fosters a working relationship between the parties.

The Agreement affirms an initiative between AACC and CSU to provide transfer pathways for AACC students ( each, a "Transfer Pathway") to CSU in an effort to enhance and facilitate degree completion at the respective institutions and includes the responsibilities of each party regarding this Agreement and sets forth the Transfer Pathway(s) for students who choose to accept the opportunity.

Pursuant to this Agreement, each department, major, or track at either AACC or CSU desiring to establish a Transfer Pathway, shall enter into a separate addendum ( each, an "Addendum"), specifying the department, major, or track of AACC sending students to CSU, the department, major, or track of CSU awarding transfer credit, and other relevant information as is set forth in attached Addendum(s) (Exhibit A, B or C attached hereto) and made a part hereof ("Program Articulation Agreement Addendums to Memorandum of Understanding").

II. Agreement Review and Term

The initial term of the Agreement shall be for a period of five (5) years, commencing on the Effective Date (December 1, 2019) and ending on December 2, 2024, after which the Agreement may be renewed in writing signed by the parties for successive one (1) year periods.

The parties shall meet, at least annually, to review changes in curriculum, programs and credential requirements for the purpose of determining whether or if the Agreement should be amended.

Either party may terminate this Agreement or any one-year successive periods that may be entered into as aforementioned by providing the other party a written notice ninety (90) days prior to the intended termination date. During the termination notice period the parties may discuss continuation of a formal relationship. If the Agreement is terminated, CSU will honor transfer students from AACC who are in the process of transferring to CSU under the Transfer Pathways provided for under the terms of this Agreement. In addition, students in the program will be provided up to five academic years post-Agreement termination within which to complete the program.

Social Work: 2.5 GP A or higher
Early Childhood Education: 3.0 GPA or higher
Elementary Education: 3.0 GPA or higher

Students transferring to CSU with an associate's of applied science (A.A.S.) degree may be required to take additional lower-division general education courses to satisfy CSU baccalaureate degree requirements. Institution-Specific requirements of CSU may be required.

VI. Academic Planning

To facilitate a seamless transition, AACC students will be advised that they should work closely with their academic advisor at AACC to develop a comprehensive academic plan as early in their academic career as possible and prior to transfer. Students and advisors are encouraged to utilize a variety of advising resources including the 4 Year Program Articulation Pathway ( accompanying this agreement), AACC Catalog, CSU Undergraduate Catalog, respective departmental websites, and ARTSYS (the USM online articulation database), to ascertain transferability of coursework.

VII. Academic Advising

Following admission to CSU, AACC students will have access to numerous advising tools including an Advising Profile, a Transfer Credit Report and a Degree Audit detailing prior coursework transferability and applicability to university, general, and major requirements.

Prior to matriculation to CSU, all new students (AACC transfer students) will be required to attend the mandatory new student orientation program. During orientation, students will meet with an academic advisor to review prior coursework, discuss academic interests and goals and register for the upcoming semester.

After orientation, students will be assigned an advisor in their area of study. Students are strongly encouraged to meet with their assigned advisor periodically. Students are required to meet with their advisor at least once per semester prior to registering for each subsequent semester.

Students, in consultation with their academic advisor, will develop an individualized degree plan for completion of all general education, graduation and major requirements as outlined in the CSU Undergraduate Catalog. These requirements include a minimum of 120 credits, including meeting the requirements of awarding a bachelor's degree from Coppin States University.

VIII. Financial Aid and Transfer Scholarships

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is eligible for need-based aid. Students must indicate CSU' s school code of 002068 when submitting the F AFSA. All students are encouraged to submit the F AFSA in accord with deadlines set by federal government and institution.

AACC students are also encouraged to apply for other CSU scholarship opportunities as they become available.

IX. Honors Program

CSU will accept AACC honors graduates or transfer students into its Honors Program during the fall semester provided that each student has earned a grade point average of 3.5 or higher or the combined equivalent from all previous collegiate institutions. The number of students accepted each fall will be driven by the Program's scholarship budget. Budget permitting, the Honors Program will welcome applications from AACC graduates or transfer students for the spring semester.

Each student admitted to the CSU Honors Program may apply credit of up to two (2) honors courses from AACC to the requirements for the Honors Program curriculum provided the courses were designated as honors, carried at least three credits, and were passed with a 3.0 (B average) or above on a 4.0 grading scale.

X. Reverse Transfer

CSU will encourage students to complete their associate's degree at AACC. CSU will honor/promote reverse transfer to former AACC students who  have transferred to CSU without completing an associate's degree.

With a properly executed FERPA release by each AACC students reverse transfer data will be shared yearly amongst administrators.

1The parties will comply with all provisions of the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ("FERPA") in all disclosures of FERPA protected information between AACC and CSU. For example, the parties may be able to share personally identifiable information from a student's record for purposes related to a student's enrollment or transfer, per 34 C.F.R §§ 99.31 (a)(2) and 99.34. In addition, pursuant to 34 C.F.R § 99.31 (a)(G)(i), the parties may share with each other personally identifiable information from students' educational records without consent for the sole purpose of conducting studies to develop, validate, or administer predictive tests; administer student aid programs; or improve instruction. Also consistent with FERPA, the parties shall use reasonable methods to ensure that they provide only those education records that are necessary to this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement may be construed to allow the parties to maintain, use, disclose, or share student record information in a manner not allowed under Federal law or regulation.

XII. Publicity and Promotion

During the term of this Agreement and successive agreement as aforementioned, CSU and AACC shall develop and agree upon a mutually acceptable marketing and student recruitment plan to promote this Agreement and transfer pathways to inform students of the opportunities available. Any and all marketing, promotional or publication materials developed by one party must be reviewed and approved in writing by the other party prior to use of any such materials.

Upon the request of CSU, AACC agrees to send outreach mailings to AACC students biannually (fall and spring) on behalf of CSU to current AACC students with 45 credits or more that are in articulated or parallel programs with CSU (e.g., associate's in Psychology to bachelor's in Psychology).
