A new transfer pathway is opening doors for students ready to take their learning further and explore new academic horizons.
University of Niagara Falls Canada recently signed a Program Pathways Transfer Credit Articulation Agreement with Cornerstone International Community College of Canada (CICC). The partnership is designed to support student mobility, reduce curriculum duplication, and provide a seamless transition into advanced degrees.
Graduates of select diploma programs at CICC are eligible to receive up to 12 transfer credits into the Master of Management, Master of Data Analytics, and Master of Arts in Digital Media and Global Communications programs at UNF. This streamlines their academic journey, helping students to complete their studies sooner and minimizing the total cost of their education.
“At UNF we are committed to creating opportunities that make education more accessible for students,” said David Gray, President and Vice-Chancellor of UNF. “This partnership reflects our dedication to fostering collaboration and supporting learners as they take the next step in their academic and professional journeys.”
CICC programs featured in the agreement include International Business Management, Data Science, UI/UX Design, Digital Marketing, and Strategic Digital Marketing. The number of transfer credits received will depend on the student’s program of study.
"Cornerstone College is dedicated to shaping a generation of globally minded learners by providing accessible, high-quality education and real-world pathways to success,” said Gihan Hafez, Vice-President and Chief Operating Officer of CICC. “Through innovation, collaboration, and a strong commitment to academic excellence, we empower students to turn their aspirations into achievements. Our partnership with the University of Niagara Falls Canada reflects our shared vision of expanding opportunities, fostering lifelong learning, and connecting students to a world of possibilities."
This agreement underscores UNF’s commitment to building strong academic pathways that empower students to achieve their goals. By building strong relationships with partner institutions, UNF continues to expand opportunities that support student success and strengthen connections across the academic community.
