AUBURN — Cayuga Community College has renewed its partnership agreement with Excelsior College, which allows Cayuga students to transfer credits to Excelsior easily.
The agreement creates a path for Cayuga students to a four-year degree in several programs related to business and technology, according to the school. It provides for reduced tuition at Excelsior and streamlined procedures to transfer credits from Cayuga.
Excelsior has had an articulation agreement with Cayuga Community College since 1990. It is one of three schools in partnership with Cayuga that offer advanced degrees to students on the college campuses in Auburn and Fulton and online through the University Center.

Excelsior is based in Albany.
