WELCOME !  

"Bridging Tribal Colleges to MSU" (BRIDGES) is a partnership between Montana State University and five tribal colleges: Chief Dull Knife College, Fort Belknap College, Fort Peck Community College, Little Big Horn College and Stone Child College.  

The program’s objective is to build a seamless educational experience between the five reservation-based colleges and Montana State University and, in the process, increase the number of underrepresented Native American students successfully transferring from the two-year tribal colleges to MSU and pursuing academic studies in the biomedical and other health-related sciences.  

To accomplish this goal, the project will create supportive communities of learners between and among students at all five community-based campuses and the MSU faculty mentors with whom they will be matched.
