WAYNESBURG – Waynesburg University recently executed two affiliation agreements with Chatham University in what it hopes will provide more opportunities for graduates as they approach their chosen career paths.

The agreements will guarantee interviews to participants for consideration into the Master of Occupational Therapy Program or Doctor of Physical Therapy Program.

Of the interviewees, up to two Waynesburg University students will be guaranteed acceptance into the programs as long as they maintain a specified GPA and receive satisfactory GRE scores.

The agreement will begin in the fall.

“We are thrilled for our students to have secured paths into graduate school,” said Jacquelyn Core, provost and vice president for academic affairs at Waynesburg. “Guaranteed admission removes pressure from our students during their undergraduate education, allowing them to focus on their studies. It’s wonderful to already know where you will end up before you ever start, something not every university can offer prospective students.”

The goal of these agreements is to improve placement opportunities for Waynesburg students by allowing them to form relationship with the leaders of these regional programs.
