Future Students
Free tuition for qualifying Career and Technical Education classes
Take
the FastTrack!
The State of Kansas will
pay your tuition for qualifying Career and Technical Education classes,
so you can take the FastTrack toward earning a degree, certificate,
industry-recognized credentials, or work-ready skills. Cowley College's vocational and technical programs prepare individuals for a wide array of challenging careers in specialized labor markets.
This tuition-free incentive
program encourages high school students to gain
the training needed to enter a profession
and, in many cases, earn an industry-recognized credential prior
to graduating from high school.
Qualified
juniors and seniors in public, private, and homeschool high schools
are eligible for free tuition through the Career and Technical
Education Act (Senate Bill 155 for Kansas residents). Cowley College pays your incidental fees;
however, you will need to purchase textbooks and may incur some small
program fees.
