University Partnerships

The University of Dayton serves as the Dayton Early College Academy’s academic operator. In that role, UD assists DECA with curriculum development, identifying education opportunities within the campus environment, and providing professional development opportunities for DECA faculty. As a Marianist university, UD has tangibly demonstrated its commitment to growing diversity on the University of Dayton campus. Additionally DECA leases its home, the third floor of College Park Center, from the University of Dayton. |

By any standards Sinclair Community College is one of the best community colleges in the nation. Since its inception, DECA has relied on Sinclair as a strong partner. Thanks to significant tuition support through the Sinclair Foundation DECA students primarily enroll in Sinclair for their college classes, the bulk of which will transfer to their four year college. |

With the leadership of Dean Farmer, a select group of DECA students have been introduced to the world of business through an ongoing relationship with Wright State’s Raj Soin College of Business. DECA students are linked to current undergraduate students and business faculty as they explore the possibility of becoming a Wright State business major. |
