Articulation Agreements

Articulation agreements facilitate the transfer of credits from one educational institution to another; thus, they link programs, reduce confusion, and aid student transitions.  The Human Services Program at Stevenson University has developed formal articulation agreements with the following programs:

Community College Programs

  • Anne Arundel Community College – Human Services Program
  • Community College of Baltimore County – Mental Health Program
  • Harrisburg Area Community College – Human Services Program; Social Services Transfer Program

Graduate School Program

  • McDaniel College – Human Services Management Program:  Special Education

The articulation agreement between McDaniel College and Stevenson University gives human services majors the opportunity to complete their B.S. in Human Services from Stevenson University and M.S. in Human Services Management:  Special Education from McDaniel College in 5 years.

The McDaniel Program provides graduate students with a master's degree while completing a live-in internship as a Community Living Manager (CLM) in a residence for adults with developmental disabilities.  In return for their internship as CLMs, students receive a 75% tuition scholarship, a stipend ($17,000 in 2007), full health care benefits, and free room and board.

Students who intend to apply for the Master’s Program at McDaniel College should enroll in HSR 515 and HSR 540 instead of HSR 315 and HSR 340.  Students who have been accepted into McDaniel College's Master's Program in Human Services Management: Special Education may enroll in McDaniel College’s EDU 550, Research Methodology, during their senior year at Stevenson University.

If students transfer 6 credits (HSR 515 and HSR 540), and complete EDU 550 during their senior year, they will be able to complete McDaniel College's Master's Program in Human Services Management:  Special Education in 1 year (6 credits-summer; 9 credits-fall, and 9 credits-spring).
