Holmes Community College and Mississippi University for Women have agreed on a program that will allow student technical fields to continue their studies uninterrupted by a switch from a two-year to a four-year school.

MUW already has similar agreements with Mississippi Delta Community College and East Mississippi Community College.

The partnership will allow technical students to pursue a bachelor’s degree by taking courses online.

The courses will offer students the opportunity to earn a bachelor’s degree from home in as few as 18 months.

Holmes is based in Goodman and offers courses in Ridgeland, Grenada and Kosciusko.
