MCC, Felician team up to offer psychology degree

Middlesex County College (MCC) graduates will now be able to earn a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology from Felician University by taking classes on the MCC campus.

An open house, at which prospective students can learn about the program, will be held in MCC’s Crabiel Hall from 6-8 p.m., August 14 at the college, 2600 Woodbridge Avenue.

Students can enroll in the program for the upcoming fall semester.

MCC graduates receive a 40 percent scholarship applied to full-time tuition, which is 12 to 18 credits per semester. Students may qualify for additional financial aid.

The program is not limited to psychology majors, but non-majors must take Introduction to Psychology before starting the program and two specific electives during their first year.

Courses held at MCC are offered in the afternoon or evenings. Students completing at least 15 credits per semester should be able to graduate from Felician within two years. The university also features a chapter of Psi Chi, the psychology honor society; a study-abroad option; and independent research in the student’s senior year.
