The University of Toledo and Owens Community College are renewing a partnership that creates a seamless pathway for students to earn a bachelor’s degree from UToledo after starting at Owens.
The admission pathway program, called Rocket Express, was first launched in 2017.
Owens President Dione D. Somerville and UToledo President Gregory Postel will announce the renewed Rocket Express program during a signing ceremony at noon Wednesday, Oct. 19, in the Student Service Center in College Hall at Owens Community College.
As part of the program, students have access to UToledo’s degree audit system to keep track of how their Owens classes will apply to their future UToledo degree program, which is a helpful tool especially if they are considering changing their program of study.
Rocket Express students also do not pay the UToledo application fee when they are ready to transfer.
UToledo and Owens announced the updated Rocket Express admission pathway program during National Student Transfer Week that celebrates transfer students and the professionals who support them.
More information on Rocket Express is available on the Owens website at owens.edu/rocketexpress.
