Due
to the overwhelming response and initial success of York Technical College’s
Reconnect with York Tech program, it will return in the spring.
Reconnect with York Tech is a program for
former students of the College, allowing them to return to complete their
program of study. Its purpose is to help students advance their career, earn
higher wages or jumpstart a job in a new industry.
Since its inception in the summer, the College welcomed and enrolled more than
200 students.
“We are working to support the students who have started and now continue to
enroll those that want to restart this spring,” said Monique Perry, the
Associate Vice President of Enrollment Management at York Tech. “Our
communities in York, Chester and Lancaster Counties have rallied around this
program and supported the College’s efforts to provide opportunities for adults
to finish what we started."
Reconnect participants may choose to enroll in one of more than 50 select
programs offered at York Tech to earn a certificate, diploma, or degree that
can be completed in 15 months or less. Students receive a tuition grant to
support their reentry to the College as long as they meet the program’s
requirements, being a resident of York, Chester or Lancaster counties and
maintaining a 2.0 grade point average.
“This is truly our York Tech mission at work and we remain excited to continue
Reconnect as we enroll returning students for spring 2020,” added Perry.
