High School Jump Start Scholarships

Are you a High School Junior or Senior?

Tuition for one class and up to $20 in lab fees will be covered. Books will be the student's responsibility. No more than a 5 credit class.

Students may choose to enroll in more than one class; however, they will be responsible to pay any remaining balance due after the Jump Start Scholarship has been applied.

Scholarships are awarded on a first come, first served basis. For continued eligibility, students must maintain a "C" or 2.0 GPA.

2. Pick up a Conditional Admission Request at any YC Registration office. Complete request and Jump Start application and bring to any YC Registration office. You will be required to confirm your citizenship.
3. If you have questions concerning class selection or educational goals, you can see an Academic Advisor.
4. Complete Skills Assessment, if required for the course. www.yc.edu/edu/skillsassessment
5. Register for class at www.yc.edu. The processing of the Jump Start will take 24 hours, so you may want to register the next business day.
6. Pay for classes the same day you register if you are concerned the class will be full or any remaining balance above the cost of a class (no more than a 5 credit class) and above a $20 lab fee.  Reimbursement will occur after the Jump Start is posted, only for the eligible amount.
