Tunxis Community College will be holding an “Enroll in a Day” event in July for new and continuing students to get help with admissions, advising, course registration, and financial aid for fall semester.

The walk-in event will open from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, July 10 at the college campus, 271 Scott Swamp Road, 100 Building in Farmington.

Before joining in on the event, prospective students who have not applied for admission should complete an application and placement form online. Required documents and unofficial college transcripts should also be uploaded using the college’s application portal, or can be submitted at the event, according to the college.

This will also be the last Saturday for students to learn more about PACT, Connecticut’s free community college program, which will be offered once again this fall, according to the college. The deadline to fill out the FAFSA, apply, and register for fall classes through the PACT program is July 15. For more information on how to qualify, visit: www.ct.edu/pact .

Some of the college’s 70 associate degrees and certificates include advanced manufacturing, business, cybersecurity, paralegal studies, data science, English as a second language, psychology, and an energy management program that offers multiple full scholarships each semester.

Among these are 23 degrees that offer seamless transfer to bachelor’s degree programs at the Connecticut state universities and Charter Oak State College. Fall semester credit classes begin Aug. 26, with a mix of on-campus, online and hybrid course options.

A vaccination clinic will also be set up during the day of the event accepting student walk-ins for covid-19 vaccines.
