Passport to College
The Passport to College program is an innovative educational partnership between students, parents, educators and the community. The goal of this pilot program is to increase the college-going-rate of students through early outreach, enrollment of 5th grade students into college-readiness/enrighment program by offering connections to the college campus, and providing follow-up as the students progress through high school and into college. Participants who meet the program requirements will be eligible for scholarships that provide two years of college at MJC with a waiver of enrollment fees. The MJC Foundation, working with local businesses, community service groups and individuals, will establish a Passport Scholarship Fund to support this program. Want to help? Please contact Sandy Marks (209) 575-6619 for more information.
