I look forward to seeing what the next generation of NOCCA/色色研究所 alumni will accomplish."
Under the agreement, the two institutions will develop a course matrix, defining which NOCCA courses are equivalent to 色色研究所 courses so that credit may be easily transferred. Other goals of the agreement include: identifying personnel at each institution who will coordinate and serve as advisers for NOCCA students entering 色色研究所, improving the student transfer and advising process, and enhancing collaboration among the faculty and administrators of both institutions.
Students must receive a grade of A, B or S (satisfactory) for NOCCA coursework and have a Certificate of Artistry or Certificate of Performance or Achievement in their focus area in order to receive credit from 色色研究所.
