Students who will graduate high school in 2023 are invited to join the Summer Success Program at NTCC!  This is a great opportunity for new grads to get a jump start on college and make new friends!

Eligible students who enroll in (and pay for) six hours during the first summer session will be awarded a scholarship to live on campus for free during that time. In addition to experiencing life on a college campus, participants will also be involved in special activities designed to boost their overall success rate as a college student.
