The Chicago School on May, 2021<\/p>\n

(WASHINGTON, D.C.) (MAY 05, 2021)<\/strong> \u2014\u00a0The Chicago School<\/a>, a leading non-profit graduate and undergraduate institution devoted to psychology and related behavioral and health sciences, and Bowie State University<\/a> (BSU), a top comprehensive university and one of the nation\u2019s oldest historically black colleges and universities, have signed an articulation agreement providing a new path to graduate school for BSU psychology students. The agreement enables active BSU psychology students to take graduate-level courses at the The Chicago School Washington, D.C. Campus<\/a> while completing their bachelor\u2019s degree at BSU. The courses will count toward their BSU bachelor\u2019s degree and their eventual graduate degree from The Chicago School.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m thrilled to be forging this partnership with Bowie State University,\u201d said Michele Nealon, Psy.D., president, The Chicago School. \u201cWorking together, we can graduate generations of diverse professionals who can fundamentally improve the health and wellbeing of communities across the country.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis agreement opens doors to exciting new opportunities for our students who wish to pursue career positions that have become integral to our nation\u2019s health care system,\u201d said Aminta H. Breaux, Ph.D., president of Bowie State University. \u201cWe are excited to see what our graduates accomplish in collaboration with The Chicago School as they enter an increasingly diverse \u2013 and competitive \u2013 workforce and become pillars of their communities.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cActive BSU student\u201d is defined as a student who has been identified as maintaining an active enrollment status under the 2021-2022 catalog requirements, as determined by BSU. Bowie State University students who are in good academic standing are eligible for admission to The Chicago School\u2019s D.C. Campus, and must earn the BSU degree within a year of conditional admission to The Chicago School. Students are also eligible for a one-time scholarship.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe agreement between Bowie State University and our institution is a significant milestone,\u201d said Paula Danquah-Brobby, Ph.D., BCBA, LBA, department chair, Applied Behavioral Analysis, The Chicago School. \u201cIt will afford undergraduate students belonging to historically disenfranchised groups the opportunity to jump-start their graduate school education and access careers in psychology and behavioral health.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited about the unique opportunity that The Chicago School partnership affords our Bowie State University undergraduates in advancing their education and preparing them for success in the psychology profession,\u201d said Cheryl Blackman, Ph.D., interim dean, College of Professional Studies, Bowie State University. \u201cWe look forward to the development of this partnership that will enable our students to realize their dreams of becoming licensed professionals and working with underserved communities.\u201d<\/p>\n

The articulation agreement between the institutions takes effect in time for the enrollment during the Fall 2021 term at The Chicago School.<\/p>\n
