Hellenic College Holy Cross has cross-registration agreements with Boston College, all fellow member institutions of the Boston Theological Institute, College Year in Athens, and Regis College. Similar partnerships with other schools are currently under discussion. To learn more about these partnerships and the benefits offered to HCHC students, please contact the Office of the Registrar.
Hellenic College has a partnership with Regis College, a leading Roman Catholic university just outside Boston. Hellenic College students who are accepted into Regis master’s degree programs in the following disciplines through HCHC’s preferred admissions agreement with Regis will obtain a two-year master’s degree in one year, thus completing a BA and MA in approximately five years.
As part of this program, Hellenic College students will have their Regis application fees and GRE requirements waived. Students may register for a graduate course in their junior or senior year at no charge, and will receive preferred admission without the competition of the rest of the applicant pool.
Hellenic College Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology and Suffolk University’s Sawyer Business School have a partnership agreement whereby Hellenic graduates who have majored or minored in Business Management and meet Suffolk’s admission standards can qualify for any of six accelerated master’s degree programs at Sawyer. Those accelerated programs lead to the following degrees: Master in Business Administration (MBA), Master of Science in Accounting (MSA), Master of Science in Finance (MSF), Master of Science in Business Analytics (MSBA), Master of Science in Marketing (MSM), and Master of Management Studies (MSM).
Sawyer Business School, in the heart of downtown Boston, was founded in 1937–the same year as Holy Cross. With its globally focused curriculum and international faculty, Sawyer offers our business-oriented students the ideal opportunity to expand their academic and professional horizons. As HCHC’s President, George M. Cantonis, observes, “Our agreement with Suffolk is the latest step in our ongoing efforts to create strategic partnerships with larger institutions that can provide the broader range of programs, degrees, and professional pathways that our students richly deserve.”
Through this partnership, Hellenic students may be able to apply up to 15 credits from their Hellenic undergraduate degrees toward these accelerated master’s degrees. This could mean earning a master’s degree in half the time it would usually take, thus saving each student a semester or potentially a year of tuition. Additionally, the partnership allows Hellenic students to acquire the foundational business and Orthodox leadership skills taught by our scholar-practitioners before moving into topnotch master’s programs to fine-tune specific skills such as accounting, finance, business analytics, marketing, and more.
