FAIRFIELD, HINCKLEY ME – Kennebec Valley Community College (KVCC) is offering

a "Late Start" 12-week mini session beginning September 28 for current and

prospective students.

 

About a dozen general education, high-demand courses are being offered in this

compact “Late-Start” schedule. “Our fall semester high-demand courses filled up

quickly,” said Karen Normandin, Dean of Student Affairs. “We want to serve the

community so our faculty and staff worked together to create this schedule. We

urge people to register soon because these classes will also fill quickly.” The courses

are online and classroom-based and can be applied to KVCC degree programs, and

transferred to other colleges and universities. They offer an ideal opportunity for

students pursuing four-year degrees to earn credits toward those degrees

while taking advantage of KVCC’s low tuition rate of just $90 per credit hour.

 

“These courses are ideal for high school students who want to take college classes

and those who are thinking about returning to school,” said Dean Normandin. The

courses offered were chosen based on high demand and some are being provided

online to increase the convenience for students. The Late Start semester will end

December 13.
