Lake Technical College offering automatic scholarship for Adult Education students

Thanks to a local scholarship organization, Lake Technical College’s Adult Education students will be receiving an automatic scholarship to cover their spring tuition – a $30 value.

Lake Technical College is offering an automatic scholarship to cover spring tuition for GED Preparation and English language Adult Education students.

This is exciting news for both returning and new GED Preparation and English language (ESOL) students. GED Prep classes help individuals prepare for the GED test. Once someone passes all four sections of the GED test, they earn a State of Florida High School diploma.

ESOL classes are ideal for individuals who want to improve their conversational English and basic language skills. Both GED Prep and ESOL spring semester classes started in January, but students can enroll anytime throughout that semester.

In order to provide options throughout this current COVID-19 pandemic, Lake Tech is offering Adult Education in both face-to-face (in-classroom format) throughout Lake County and fully online classes. Students interested in taking advantage of this free tuition opportunity should complete an online application at www.laketech.org and then call the Admissions Office to schedule a basic skills assessment for GED Prep or CASAS for ESOL, if they do not have current ability levels on file.

Testing appointments can be scheduled through the Admissions Office and are available Monday through Thursday at 8 a.m. and 1 p.m. Limited walk-in slots for testing are available on Monday and Wednesday. Students can pay in advance for the test ($25) using the secure “Quick Pay” resource at the top of the Lake Tech web homepage.

Lake Technical College is a public, post-secondary institution that offers high quality training for many promising careers. Visit www.laketech.org or call (352) 589-2250 for more information.
