Housatonic Community College (HCC) will be open Saturdays, August 4, 18 and 25 from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. to offer new and continuing students access to one-stop, walk-in registration, including a full range of assistance to complete the registration process in time for the fall semester, which begins on August 28.
Faculty and staff will be on hand to offer guidance and help with admissions applications, counseling, financial aid, payment plans, academic advising, placement testing, and registration. New students can prepare in advance by visiting www.gatewayct.edu/apply-now. New applicants can expedite the process by bringing unofficial transcripts (high school or college), proof of high school graduation or GED, and immunization records. Academic placement testing will also be available after the application process is complete.
New students are urged to schedule a Launch Group Advising session, which is designed to identify career options and prepare students through course recommendations, prerequisites or program requirements.
A deposit on the college’s payment plan, or approved financial aid, will be required at the time of registration. For more information, visit www.housatonic.edu/admissions-financial-aid/easy-registration
HCC offers over 75 career-focused programs perfect for students of any age and background. Stop by and see why HCC was recently ranked among the top 150 community colleges in the nation by the Aspen Institute.
Housatonic Community College is a diamond buried in the rough here in Bridgeport. It is a great asset and I hope future BPT civic leaders will support and publicize this wonderful place.
