Fond du Lac, Wisc.: Moraine Park Technical College and Marian University have established a transfer agreement that enables students earning an Associate of Arts (AA) or Associate of Science (AS) liberal arts degree to seamlessly transfer to Marian University at a confirmed junior status. The completion of the AA or AS degree fulfills the general education requirements for any bachelor’s degree program at Marian University, allowing students to focus directly on their chosen major. The agreement will be signed by Marian University President Aaron Sadoff and Moraine Park President Bonnie Baerwald on February 20. “Marian University is our neighbor, and we are thrilled to collaborate in providing a robust educational opportunity right here in Fond du Lac and throughout our district,” Bonnie Baerwald, Moraine Park president, said. “Our goal is to ensure students in our district have access to affordable, high-quality education, and the continued expansion of our transfer agreements reinforces that commitment.” The partnership with Marian University creates even more opportunities for students across Moraine Park’s 10 district counties: Dodge, Fond du Lac, Green Lake, and Washington counties, and portions of Calumet, Columbia, Marquette, Sheboygan, Waushara, and Winnebago counties. Through this agreement, students who complete an AA or AS degree at Moraine Park can transfer all credits earned as part of their degree (a minimum of 60 credits) directly to Marian University. Additional credits earned outside the program curricula will be evaluated individually. “The two schools have many complementary programs like Nursing, Business, Construction Management, Education, and Criminal Justice,” said Aaron Sadoff, Marian University president. “Together, we are making it easier for students to continue their education, advance their careers, and contribute to the Fond du Lac community and beyond. This partnership is about more than transferring credits—it’s about empowering students to become future leaders and citizens for the world. We’re better together.” Moraine Park began offering liberal arts degrees in 2022 as part of the University Transfer Degree program. Since then, the College has grown educational pathways for students by signing agreements with the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Lakeland University and Ripon College.
