Lack of Money Is No Excuse
- Adult education classes are free. Fees apply for high school equivalency tests such as the GED or Hi-Set.
- When you earn your Adult High Diploma or High School Equivalency, you may qualify for the Finish for Your Future Scholarship, which provides up to $1,000 toward a college degree or continuing education class.
- Approximately 80% of our college curriculum students receive some type of financial assistance. Completing the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) is the first step.
- Even if you do not qualify for a federal Pell grant, we have over 100 scholarships available to our students with one application.
- We have a whole list of student supports that are FREE!
