Take the next step
If you have dropped out of high school, will not be able to graduate with your class, or speak a different first language than English, Yes to College can offer you skills and support to get you where you want to go.
Yes to College works with your school district to offer you a scholarship to the program. The scholarship for Phase 1 covers the costs of your classes, test fees, and books. For students who continue into Phase 2, the scholarship covers the full cost of college tuition, fees, and books.
Our program also pairs you with a College Success Coach to help you adjust to PCC and to college life. Your Success Coach is there to advise you; teach you life skills, organization, and time management; and connect you with community, career, and college resources.
