  1. What a great program!

    I found out about the Free College program in the Fall of 2017.  At that time, my son was in the middle of his Computer Science Bachelor’s Degree at UMUC and lucky for us, had not taken any of his general education classes.  We were able to enroll him in the program and take advantage of 22 transferable credits, which saved us $11,308.00 If we had known about this sooner, we could have saved…Read More

  2. I discovered it wasn’t too scary, it wasn’t too hard and I’m not too old to learn

    My first semester went great! I have a 4.0 GPA so far. I discovered it wasn’t too scary, it wasn’t too hard and I’m not too old to learn. I’m taking 4 more classes this semester and so far, it’s going well. I’m hoping to take a class or two over the summer and hit the books again in the fall. Thanks for checking in. I’m enjoying my new adventure!  …Read More

  3. Until one Sunday sitting at my computer and it was staring at me, so I took the plunge and filled out the application

But it was not…Read More

  4. I can only take one class at a time since I work full time

    Unfortunately, I can only take one class at a time since I work full time, but I’m on class 7 or 8 right now. So my 2-year program will likely go for 3+ years. I never really liked school and struggled a lot. I still have a hard time, but it’s a great feeling of accomplishment when I finish a class. And quite a shock to receive A’s and B’s! I’m doing this simply because I can. I didn’t…Read More

  5. E.G.C.C. degree programs are in fact FREE.

    I graduated in May 2017 with an Associate of Applied Science in Criminal Justice with Police Academy Option.  Approximately 35-40 members or family members of the Fraternal Order of Police were in this first graduating class from Eastern Gateway Community College.  I have had the distinct pleasure and privilege of speaking at our Ohio State conference and at our National Conference about this un…Read More

  6. The most diligent and helpful advisor to my wife and I throughout the enrollment process!

    I would like to take a moment to commend Veronica Jackson for being the most diligent and helpful advisor to my wife and I throughout the enrollment process. We faced quite a few hiccups while trying to register my wife for the upcoming Fall semester. She just migrated to the United States last year and as a result, some of the required documents were uniquely different from that of the standard a…Read More
