Northcentral Technical College and the University of Wisconsin–Stevens Point at Wausau opened a new Advising + Transfer Center on Wednesday, Oct. 28, at NTC’s Wausau campus, according to an NTC announcement. The center is a student support hub for the schools’ Purple and Blue Advantage co-location partnership, the college said.
NTC said it welcomed UWSP at Wausau to its Wausau campus in August, creating a local option for students who want to complete a bachelor’s degree. The colleges are developing pathways in areas including biology, health science and wellness, nursing and psychology, according to the announcement.
The partnership is helping nearly 300 students plan their futures in the region, NTC President Jeannie Worden said in the announcement. Students from both colleges can access academic support, labs and extracurricular activities, NTC said.
NTC’s announcement did not provide the center’s hours or a separate contact number for the center. It lists the college’s general contact number as 715-675-3331 and its address as 1000 W. Campus Drive, Wausau.
