The agreement offers an easy way to transfer from a Blue Ridge CTC associate degree program into the Bachelor of Science in Business Administration degree program at WLU.

“This new partnership offers new opportunity for students and for the entire state of West Virginia which needs more college graduates in its workforce.,” said Dr. Stephen Greiner, WLU president. “We welcome inquiries from Blue Ridge Community and Technical College students and encourage them to take advantage of this seamless way to transfer and earn a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration at the Gary E.
