UWA will also offer pre-transfer academic advising to ECCC students. In addition, dedicated academic scholarships for those students with a 3.0 GPA or higher valued at $3,000 to $4,000 per year for up to four consecutive semesters and dedicated housing scholarships valued at $2,000 for the first year will be made available to ECCC students attending UWA.

“ECCC has a long history of students who choose to continue their educational pursuits at the University of West Alabama following graduation,” said Stewart. “We are very appreciative of the interest UWA has in our students and for this clearly defined understanding that makes it more efficient and affordable for them to do so. We look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship with the University of West Alabama.”
