FOR HIGHER EDUCATION, LET YOUR ADVENTURE BEGIN AT SKYCTC!

BY REBECCA LEE

Graduating high school, starting a new job, or changing careers can be an exciting and welcome adventure. For many, these new adventures will include the need for additional training and education beyond a high school diploma. Southcentral Kentucky Community and Technical College makes the path to higher education easy by offering low tuition, numerous scholarships, caring faculty and staff, and flexible classes. From individuals who want to upskill in their current job, to high school students following their dreams, SKYCTC offers unmatched quality, affordability, and flexibility.

Many Paths to a Great Career

SKYCTC offers certificates, diplomas, and associate degrees in programs that align with the careers available in our region. With SKYCTC, students can tailor their education to their needs. Some students may get a short-term certificate and start their careers immediately. Others may earn an associate degree and join the workforce in a high-demand field, such as nursing. Of course, students who want to earn a bachelor’s degree can start at SKYCTC, too. After graduating with an associate degree, students can easily transfer their credits to any Kentucky public university and most private colleges and universities in the state to continue their education.

Flexible College Classes

With SKY Flex, students complete most of their classwork in online interactive modules. Then, the student goes to campus one day a week (per class) for a hands-on lab with the instructor. SKY Flex is perfect for students who plan to work while they attend college.

Unmatched Affordability

SKYCTC has the lowest college tuition in the state and is committed to helping students graduate without student loan debt. As a result, almost two-thirds of SKYCTC graduates complete their associate degrees without loans.

Scholarship Options

The DC to Finish Scholarship is the top tier of the SKYCTC merit scholarships offered to first-time college students. It provides $5,000 per academic year to students who complete nine or more SKYCTC dual credit hours with a SKYCTC GPA of 3.0 or better. Since annual tuition is only $4,368, students can easily graduate with no tuition debt!

The SKY Merit Scholarship is for first-time college students with high school GPAs ranging from 4.0 to 2.5. The annual award amount ranges from $1,000 to $4,000 and is based on the student’s high school GPA. High school graduates are entering SKYCTC with an average high school GPA of 3.2*. This means the average first-time incoming student could receive $2,000 per year with the SKY Merit scholarship, which is almost half the cost of a full year of tuition.

Additional College Scholarships are also available by category. Some scholarships are need-based, while others are dedicated to students in specific disciplines, such as culinary arts, HVAC, and nursing.

When starting a new adventure, sometimes the first step is the hardest. Schedule a campus visit, and learn about the many resources available to help students succeed in and after college at skyctc.edu.

The Work Ready Kentucky Scholarship (WRKS) can pay a student’s total tuition cost. WRKS is not based on a student’s income or age and allows students to earn up to 60 credit hours in high-demand career fields. Nearly all programs offered at SKYCTC qualify for the WRKS.
