The College Readiness Program is for people aged 16 to 25 who do not have a high school diploma but are now ready for a second chance. The program will teach you the academic skills that you need to pass the GED and a Texas approved college entrance exam. It will help you choose the college that is right for you and help you get financial aid to go to school and much, much more. People who already have a GED are encouraged to apply. Financial assistance to help with child care and transportation will be available on an as needed basis.
