Co-enrolled students will have access to academic support, career services, and campus life resources across campuses while progressing toward a UNT bachelor\u2019s degree.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery qualified student who commits to learn with us deserves a clear path forward \u2014 and this partnership makes that possible from day one,\u201d said Dr. Harrison Keller, UNT president. \u201cThis is exactly what it looks like when institutions work together to create enduring value for the public good.\u201d<\/p>\n
