Grayson College and University of North Texas Partner to Strengthen Transfer Pathways for Students
Grayson College and the University of North Texas (UNT) have partnered to simplify the transfer process and support students as they pursue their educational and career goals.
The agreement, signed by Grayson College President Dr. Jeremy McMillen and UNT President Dr. Harrison Keller, formalizes a shared commitment to student success and seamless academic transition between the two institutions.
“This partnership with UNT allows Grayson College students to take the next step in their academic journey with confidence, knowing their hard work here directly connects to their future goals,” Dr. McMillen said. “Together, we’re helping students turn their vision for the future into reality.”
Through the agreement, Grayson College students who complete an associate degree with a GPA of 3.0 or higher and transfer to UNT are eligible for a $500 transfer bonus award at UNT. The partnership also enhances engagement opportunities through the UNT Eagle Bound Program, which provides advising, outreach and transfer support for students preparing to continue their studies at UNT.
“As we advance our bold vision at UNT for pursuing excellence, innovation and access to a transformational education, we know this is only possible with partners like Grayson College,” Dr. Keller said. “This partnership will expand educational and economic opportunities for individual students and help provide the talent our North Texas region needs.”
Grayson College and UNT share a mission centered on student achievement, workforce readiness and educational access. By creating clear and intentional pathways, the institutions aim to ensure that every student, whether entering the workforce or pursuing advanced degrees, has the guidance, resources and support needed to succeed.
To kick off the transfer partnership, UNT is hosting Transfer Express at Grayson College November 11. At this event, Grayson students can connect with UNT admissions counselors, learn more about Eagle Bound, submit their applications onsite and receive an application fee waiver.
This event, as well as the partnership, reflects Grayson College’s ongoing effort to strengthen transfer and workforce pathways, ensuring that every student has a clear next step after graduation.
