Clarksville Now
CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – Austin Peay State University (APSU) and Nashville State Community College recently signed an agreement to help students complete their degree, or pursue additional degrees. The agreement formalizes the ability of a student who completes their associate degree at Nashville State to be granted admissions to select undergraduate programs at APSU.
“This is a win for the student, Nashville State, and APSU,” said Dannelle Whiteside, interim president at APSU. “By guaranteeing admittance to select undergraduate programs, it encourages the student to keep moving their education forward. They can complete their associate through Nashville State and continue working toward completion of a bachelor’s, or advanced degrees.”
