FastTracks is an affordable, accessible and focused way to earn your associate and bachelor’s degrees simultaneously through Metropolitan Community College and Northwest Missouri State University.
Students will focus on completing an associate degree from MCC while taking up to six Northwest classes to prepare in the next phase of the program. After completion of the associate degree, students transition to Northwest – Kansas City or the Maryville campus to complete their bachelor’s degree. A designated advisor is assigned at each campus to guide students to complete their program in a timely manner.
