Since 2008, Genesee Community College has offered the Genesee Promise Plus (GPP) scholarships to help remove financial barriers to higher education for citizens in the Genesee, Livingston, Orleans and Wyoming (GLOW) counties. As the scholarship program celebrates its tenth anniversary, the college encourages all qualified individuals, from students in high school to adults who have never taken a college course before – to apply for up to two summer semester courses tuition-free at GCC.
With more than 60 courses being offered this summer, in two summer sessions and both online and at GCC’s seven campus locations, there are ample opportunities for all eligible applicants in these categories:
•High School Juniors (rising seniors) and qualifying Homeschool Students are eligible for scholarship funding to take one course
•Graduating High School Seniors are eligible for scholarship funding to take one or two courses
•Adults who have never attended college are eligible for scholarship funding to take one course. This includes adults who have received a GED prior to May 1, 2017 or graduated from a GLOW area high school in December 2016 or earlier. GCC will require a copy of high school transcripts.
GPP scholarship applications are being accepted until June 22, 2018 for the 2018 summer session. The complete list of courses available this summer is available at https://www.genesee.edu/courses/schedule/. Applications, qualification criteria and additional information are available at http://www.genesee.edu/gcc/promise/.
