Genesee Community College-Medaille College Joint Enrollment Program
Medaille College enjoys a comprehensive partnership with Genesee Community College that offers GCC students the opportunity to continue their education through a variety of academic programs leading to a bachelor’s degree.
If you follow all the guidelines faithfully, then you will be positioned to complete your Medaille degree in two years of standard course loads. The overall joint enrollment agreement incorporates the following program-specific 2+2 connections:

GCC students interested in transferring after completion of their associate’s degree are encouraged to apply for admission to the joint enrollment program through their campus’s Admissions Office.
Planning and Advisement Documents
The online documents in this section are designed to help you engage effectively in planning and advisement during your time at GCC so that the transition to Medaille goes as smoothly and successfully as possible:
- Genesse Community College and Medaille College Joint Enrollment Program Agreement (PDF): describes the overall policies and procedures for joint enrollment agreed upon by officials at both institutions.
- Master List of Transferable Courses 2007: identifies every GCC course accepted for transfer credit at Medaille. It also notes, when applicable, equivalencies between comparable GCC and Medaille courses. The Master List is definitive, and should take the mystery out of whether a specific GCC course will transfer or not. Any GCC class on the list will transfer at least as a free elective. Most will apply to specific degree requirements at Medaille.
- Cooperative Degree Program Curriculum Guides are perhaps
your most important resource and advisement tool. Look for the Guide
that corresponds to your GCC degree program. Each Guide provides you
with a critical overview about the application of all your transfer
courses toward various categories of graduation requirements in your
intended Medaille major. The Guide also directs you how to make the
most effective use of electives in your GCC program to maximize credit
transfer. If you follow all the guidelines faithfully, then
you will be positioned to complete your Medaille degree in two years
of standard course loads.
