LHU and Lehigh Carbon Community College Sign Program Agreement

LOCK HAVEN, PA – For students considering a career in athletics, as a coach, manager, agent or director in a high school, college or minor or major league sports, Lock Haven University and Lehigh Carbon Community College (LCCC) recently have completed an agreement that allows students who have earned an associate degree in sport management from LCCC to transfer seamlessly to LHU’s bachelor’s degree in sport administration.

LCCC graduates will have all 61 credits accepted into LHU’s bachelor’s degree. Students must have a minimum of a C grade point average and will enter LHU as a junior. The application fee also will be waived for these transfer students.

“We are excited to partner with Lehigh Carbon Community College to offer students this opportunity to further their education with LHU,” said Dr. Robert Pignatello, LHU president.

“This agreement streamlines the pathway for students interested in earning their degree in sport management,” said Dr. Ann D. Bieber, LCCC president. “We are honored to join with Lock Haven in smoothing the way for students to earn their college degrees.”
