Many programs in HFM BOCES Career
and Technical Education Center (CTC) have eligibility agreements
to earn college credit with community colleges, universities,
and technical schools. These articulation agreements result in
the awarding of related college/university credit to students
who successfully complete their CTC curriculum. The CTC has
entered into articulation agreements to assist students in
meeting their educational goals. See the current list
here. (pdf
- Updated 8/30/2011) The benefits of
articulation are:
• Earn college credits
while still in high school
• Advanced credit
standing in a post-secondary institution
• Encourage
post-secondary studies
• Save money on tuition
fees and books
• Accelerate progress
• Reduce duplication of
instruction
• Improve job readiness
skills The credits are available at no cost
to students who enroll full time at the colleges and trades
schools with whom the CTC has entered into an agreement. A CTC
program must have a pre-arranged agreement to offer articulated
credits with a post-secondary institution.
To be eligible for articulation credits
students must meet certain criteria including grade point
average and classroom attendance. Other criteria may apply
depending on the program. Students need to complete an
application (depending on the institution) to be eligible to
receive the credits. Most applications require verification
by the CTC instructor before credit is awarded. This process
should be initiated prior to summer vacation.
