Articulation

Turn your experience into college credits.

Articulation is a process in which students can earn college credit for demonstrating skills and competencies developed in an approved high school or technical center CTE program/course. Students who participate in the Baker College articulation program save hundreds of tuition dollars and may lessen the time required to complete their college education.
