SCCC offers free workshops to prepare students

NEWTON — High school seniors who are attending Sussex County Community College this fall or high school juniors are being offered FREE courses to prepare them for College in the fall.
College's Readiness III Workshops help students sharpen their English or Algebra skills which will help them avoid taking developmental courses in the fall. All necessary materials are included with these free workshops. Students must have already taken the Accuplacer (Placement) Test at SCCC to participate. The English and Algebra Workshops will be held May 23 to June 6 on Mondays and Wednesdays or Tuesdays and Thursdays in the Student Center Building. English runs from 4-7 p.m. and Algebra with Foundations runs from 4-8 p.m. Seating is limited for all classes.
College Ready Now courses make perfect sense for students looking to get ahead this summer. In conjunction with the College Credit Now Grant, SCCC is offering free college courses during the summer.
The College Credit Now is for students who are proficient and ready for college and who have already taken or intend to take the Accuplacer (Placement) Test at SCCC. Students who are eligible have the option of taking one of four courses. These courses include Accounting, Statistics, Psychology and Sociology. Courses will be held May 22 to June 26 from Monday to Thursday, 6 p.m. to 9:55 p.m. at SCCC.
A textbook for the class will also be provided at no additional cost.
