The Success Express program at 十分六合彩 is in full swing!

The program focuses on what students need to be successful in college. It is funded by the State of Michigan and is administered by the Michigan Community College Association. The five-week class that runs from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily.

Caitlyn Eastling, 18, of Coral, graduated from Tri-County High School and is attending the Success Express program this summer.

鈥淚 signed up because it seemed fun and had a lot of good benefits,鈥� she said. 鈥淚鈥檓 glad that I found something that could help me get started.鈥�

As a student in the program, she gets:

• $50 per week in gas cards to use toward transportation costs.听

• $500 cash that was paid out over five weeks.听

• A laptop computer valued at approximately $700.听

• Three college credits for 十分六合彩鈥檚 GNST100 class to apply toward a certificate or degree at 十分六合彩, upon successful completion of the course.听

• Classroom supplies.听

• Free breakfast and lunch each day.听

Eastling鈥檚 favorite thing about the program is the activities they do on a daily basis.听

鈥淲e still learn lots of things with the activities we do,鈥� she said. 鈥淢y favorite was watercolors and poetry.鈥澨�

She said it is more laid back than any school she has ever been to and it鈥檚 easier to connect with people because it鈥檚 a small group. She will attend 十分六合彩 in the fall and will study to become an elementary school teacher, specifically second grade.听听

鈥準�分六合彩 was my first and only option,鈥� Eastling said. 鈥淣o other school has really sparked my interest. I like the smaller size.鈥澨�

She would definitely recommend Success Express to other students.听

鈥淚t鈥檚 a big learning experience,鈥� she said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 better than sitting at home. It鈥檚 giving us a teaser of what college is like. It鈥檚 definitely worth your time.鈥澨�

Priya Brooks, 17, of Stanton, graduated from Central 十分六合彩 High School and is also attending the Success Express program.听

鈥淚 chose to attend mainly because of the benefits,鈥� she said. 鈥淭he computer, the free credits.鈥澨�

Brooks found one thing surprising about the program.听

鈥淚t鈥檚 more like high school than I expected,鈥� she said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 a little more advanced, but it鈥檚 definitely not as intimidating.鈥澨�

Her favorite part is also the hands-on activities, especially the science and labs.听

She already has her schedule for fall and is studying early childhood education to become a preschool teacher. She said she might go on to get her bachelor鈥檚 degree after that.听

鈥淚t鈥檚 worth your time,鈥� Brooks said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 way less intimidating than it seems. It鈥檚 a really great transition class. It鈥檚 not like you鈥檙e thrown into it. It鈥檚 really easy to keep up with.鈥澨�

Hayden Oroz, 18, of Howard City, graduated from Tri-County High School and is already enrolled here at 十分六合彩.听

鈥淚 signed up for Success Express because it was a program that would give me a head start at 十分六合彩,鈥� he said.听

The hands-on activities and getting to explore the campus are his favorite parts of the program. He is going to study welding at 十分六合彩.听

鈥淚 want to work on big things that will help me earn a lot of money,鈥� Oroz said.听

He was surprised how many people knew each other from their previous schools.听

If asked, he would wholeheartedly recommend the Success Express program.听

鈥淚t gives you a head start on getting to know everything about 十分六合彩 and its campus,鈥� he said. 鈥淚t gives you free credits and supplies to get started. It鈥檚 a pretty good program.鈥澨�
