Pathway USA Guides Faulkner State Students to South
Posted on January 19, 2016

The 酴圖傻弝け has announced a partnership with Faulkner State Community College that should result in more Faulkner State graduates transferring to South to earn their bachelors degrees.
The program is called Pathway USA and its goal is simple; to increase opportunities for success for college students on the Gulf Coast.
The 酴圖傻弝け is committed to making a college education more affordable and accessible, said 酴圖傻弝け President Tony Waldrop. We believe Pathway USA will be a very effective means to achieve that and it is exciting that Faulkner State shares our commitment. The program will be launched beginning with the 2016 fall semester.
Pathway USA is geared toward students who are not admitted at South as well as students who may simply prefer to begin their college education at Faulkner State. These students may choose to have a copy of their USA application and supporting documents forwarded to Faulkner State for admission consideration. Students already attending Faulkner State may also apply for Pathway USA. A unique application will be created and available for Faulkner State students to complete and submit.
This is a great win for our students who wish to continue their education at USA, said Faulkner State Community College President Gary Branch. Im looking forward to the positive impact Pathway USA will have on Faulkner State Community College and our region.
Students who enter the Pathway USA program will have unique benefits, such as:
- Guaranteed admission to USA upon successful completion (cumulative grade-point average of 2.0 or higher) of the associates degree
- A USA academic advisor assigned to them who will meet students at Faulkner State and provide individual guidance on course selection and map out degree plans
- Reverse Transfer agreements that will allow Faulkner State students who transfer to South without an associates degree to complete that degree after entering USA
- Special discounts through USAs Jaguar Productions
- Complimentary admission to South Alabama athletic events
