NIC, Walsh to offer online degrees

North Idaho College students will be able to earn an undergraduate or graduate degree in business from Walsh College in Michigan, the two schools announced Tuesday.

The Idaho students will be able to transfer up to 82 credits toward a bachelor’s degree offered online by Walsh, which has 4,600 students on two Michigan campuses, three Detroit university centers and on the Web.

A Walsh spokesman said the college has several such agreements with other junior colleges, most in Michigan, but NIC is the first school in the West where students will be able to enroll. Bert Caldwell, SR
