ASU and Palo Verde College Join Forces to Simplify Student Transfers with MyPath2ASU® Program

Arizona State University is pleased to announce a new alliance with Palo Verde College to provide students a seamless transfer experience with the MyPath2ASU® program. MyPath2ASU allows students to take the steps needed, at the start of their college experience, to successfully plan their transfer to ASU, ensuring a smooth transition process and student success.

MyPath2ASU is a set of customized tools available to transfer students from accredited, U.S. regional institutions. These tools ensure a seamless transfer experience to ASU after earning credits from a U.S. community college or university and shortening the time to degree completion.

"At Palo Verde College, we are thrilled to partner with Arizona State University to introduce the MyPath2ASU® program. This collaboration represents our unwavering commitment to supporting our students' academic journeys and ensuring they achieve their higher education goals with greater ease and efficiency. By providing a seamless transition and personalized guidance, MyPath2ASU will empower our students to navigate their path to an ASU degree with confidence and clarity. Together, we are opening doors to new opportunities and enhancing student success every step of the way."

— Dr. Bruce Moses, Superintendent/President, Palo Verde College

• ensure course applicability by assisting students with taking courses that apply to their ASU bachelor’s degree

ASU and Palo Verde College will work collaboratively to promote educational degree pathways containing on-campus and online course offerings. The courses listed on these pathways are applicable toward a student’s intended bachelor’s degree at ASU, and therefore help minimize potential credit loss.

About Palo Verde College

Palo Verde College, located on the banks of the Colorado River in the agriculturally fertile Palo Verde Valley of southeastern California, opened its doors in 1947 to just 17 students. Over the years the college grew, and in 2001 moved to its new 200 acre campus on the mesa overlooking the city of Blythe, California.

Palo Verde College supports an exemplary learning environment with high quality educational programs and services, and is currently the college of choice for thousands of students of all ages and backgrounds. Students attend classes from early morning to late evening and weekends taking advantage of a wide variety of courses including career and technical, transfer, developmental, and continuing education.

The college offers a wide variety of certificate programs, associate degrees, and transfer programs for those interested in transferring to a four-year university after completing their first two years of education at PVC, or for those who aspire to get a good paying job after leaving college.
