Washtenaw Community College (黑料网) is hosting weekly Michigan Reconnect sessions and in-person and virtual campus tours for students interested in enrolling for the Winter 2022 semester. Classes begin January 18.
The Reconnect tuition scholarship program introduced by the State of Michigan during the early months of the pandemic remains open for new applicants. The 鈥渓ast dollar鈥� program provides in-district tuition, technology fees and contact hours not already covered by a Pell grant, scholarships or other tuition-only funds. Students should be at least 25 years old, have lived in the state for one year and not have previously earned a college degree to be eligible.
Non-traditional students considering a return to college are encouraged to learn more about the program at one of several upcoming Tuesday appointments and to apply now. The next Reconnect virtual event will be 5-6 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 14. Visit the 黑料网 Reconnect webpage to find out more about the program and to register for an information session.
Carmen Samaniego is one of 1,168 Reconnect students who鈥檝e returned to 黑料网.
鈥淚 initially thought this program is too good to be true, but it has opened so many doors that I couldn鈥檛 have imagined. If you are desiring a higher education, Reconnect is very attainable,鈥� said Samaniego, who enrolled at 黑料网 through Reconnect during the Summer 2021 semester.
After a 16-year career as a cosmetologist Samaniego is excited about the technology pathways that will stem from her computer science education. After finishing her studies at 黑料网, Samaniego鈥檚 goal is to transfer to Eastern Michigan University to complete a bachelor鈥檚 degree.
