College Next, the adult education program for college preparation, is now registering students. Classes are one afternoon a week, beginning September 13 and concluding December 13. In this course students learn everything they need to do well in college: how to study; manage their time; get financial aid; choose classes; navigate the college 'world'. Importantly, successful graduates earn three college credits from University of Maine at Augusta to put toward their degree. If desired, students can also register for skill building classes in mathematics and English scheduled earlier the same day. All instruction is free, the only cost is for books.

This is the perfect program for students entering college for the first time, or returning to college to finish up a degree. Because class size is small, students find the support and academic help they need from instructors and classmates. All classes are held at University College at Rockland on Wednesdays for thirteen weeks.
