PROGRAM PROFILE
We will select transfer students who have been admitted by UNCC as Majors or Pre-Majors.  You must agree to take Statistics 1222 (fall), if you have not pass it with a ‘c’ or better, and Research Methods 3101 (spring) with your cohort while enrolled in our learning community.
The year-long program consists of two courses: one each during the fall and spring semesters. Students will become immersed in several ways along with their cohort: students will be involved in self-esteem and team building activities, introduced to the criminal justice major, local criminal justice agencies, campus resources and service initiatives which will serve as a resource for the students’ acclimation to his or her environment.
