Connecticut is offering a wonderful new program that will make applying for higher education much easier - and less expensive - for graduating high school students. TheConnecticut Automatic Admission Programallows students who meet certain criteria to be automatically admitted to several Connecticut colleges and universities by filling out a single application form, free of charge!
The following colleges and universities are participating in the program:
Central Connecticut State University in New Britain
Eastern Connecticut State University in Willimantic
Southern Connecticut State University in New Haven
Don't delay: the deadline to apply for high school seniors who are graduating this spring is January 4, 2024.
Graduating seniors in the top 30% of their class, as identified by their individual high school counselors, are eligible.
Applying for college can be an intimidating, time-consuming, and expensive process. But with the Automatic Admission Program, applying for some of our great state schools is more accessible than ever - evening the playing field for all applicants, particularly first-generation, low-income, and minority students.
