The signing ceremony took place at MGCCC鈥檚 Hospitality Resort Management Center in Biloxi. The agreement is part of the Pathway USA program that streamlines the transfer process for entering South.
鈥淢ississippi Gulf Coast Community College has been a valued partner in our Pathway USA program since 2016,鈥 said USA President Jo Bonner. 鈥淲ith today鈥檚 renewal we look forward to many more years of providing a smooth transition for their students to advance their education at South.鈥
Students who are admitted into the program are guaranteed admission to USA upon successful completion of the Associate of Arts degree or Associate of Science degree with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher.

Each student in the program will receive access to a USA advisor, who will visit their campus once each term, and other benefits, including a special USA ID card, discounts to USA Jaguar Productions, library privileges, early registration, and free admission to USA athletic events.
