WORCESTER — Quinsigamond Community College is hosting a “Super Saturday” registration event 9-1 Saturday, August 26th. The event will be held on QCC’s main campus at 670 West Boylston Street, Worcester in the Harrington Learning Center.
QCC recognizes that many members of the community who want to pursue higher education have work schedules or family responsibilities that make it challenging to visit campus on a weekday. The “Super Saturday” event offers expanded access to higher education and the many services that QCC provides.
Attendees can apply for admission and financial aid, register for classes, tour the campus and more. Information sessions are also available to learn about the new MassReconnect program, which offers free tuition, fees and books to eligible Massachusetts residents aged 25 and older who have never received an associate or bachelor’s degree.
For more information on “Super Saturday” visit qcc.edu/Saturday. For more information on MassReconnect visit qcc.edu/massreconnect.
