Brenau University announced Wednesday it has entered an enrollment agreement with Riverside Preparatory Academy which will grant admission to five qualified Riverside graduates in each first-year class every year for the next five years.
Brenau University in a press release said the agreement expands on the partnership between Brenau and Riverside, which included previous collaborations on academics and sharing spaces for the arts, athletics and sciences.
“There are different ways this agreement could launch multiple relationships between our two institutions, both curricular and co-curricular,” Brenau President David Barnett, Ph.D., said. “Students from Riverside could participate in our fine arts programs as well as our academic programs.”
The agreement was inked by Barnett and Riverside President Stanley C. “Staś” Preczewcki, Ph.D., COL (R), at a ceremony on Brenau’s campus on Feb. 8.
Preczewcki encouraged Riverside students to pursue their bachelor’s degree locally and be strategic about their educational pursuits.
“Riverside Prep is pleased to enter into this agreement with Brenau University. The benefits it offers will significantly enhance the range of quality opportunities available to our cadets. We appreciate this partnership with the university and all that it does in our local community and beyond,” Preczewcki said.
Admission to Brenau will be extended to the five qualified candidates in the learning platform of choice: residential, commuter or online at any of Brenau’s campuses. Prospective students will still need to apply, but application fees will be waived for Riverside students.
The first five Riverside graduates will be admitted in fall 2024.
