If another eight years of school isn't on your bucket list, don't worry. These jobs point to growing industries in the broader U.S. economy, meaning you don't necessarily have to be a doctor or engineer to get paid well.

Consider Enrolling in a TRiO/IMPACT course.

How does a TRiO/IMPACT class work?

As a member of TRiO/IMPACT, we will waive your tuition for these classes, which is a wonderful savings for you unless you are already receiving a scholarship for tuition. Your instructor teaches only two or three classes, so he/she is available for one-on-one tutoring help as needed. Students may schedule a tutoring session through SetMore. We stay open on Tuesdays and Thursdays until 9 p.m. for those who have activities or practice in the afternoon. We currently provide Composition I classes and Supplementary Seminar. We also provide Elementary Algebra.

IMPACT Class Policy:

In the event that you have more than five unexcused absences, you may be asked to drop the IMPACT class dependent upon the circumstance and determined by the instructor; after all, IMPACT is paying for your class. Having more than five unexcused absences in any one class will automatically disqualify you to receive the Supplemental Grant Aid. IMPACT will waive the tuition for each IMPACT class only once. If you have to retake an IMPACT class, we will NOT waive the tuition. Any student caught cheating in an IMPACT class will not be able to take another IMPACT class during their time at Cowley. If you are placed on financial aid suspension, you cannot use a paid IMPACT class to meet your six hour obligation.

C-Mail Accounts

Cowley College will be disabling the C-mail account system at the end of the spring 2017 semester. All current students should discontinue using mail.cowley.edu.
