Adult Student Services

A variety of support services are available for those adults considering "re-entry" into education.  These services may include counseling, workshops, and pre-THEA computer tutorials. 

For the 2-year Vocational/Technical major, there may also be extra financial support for child care, transportation, books.

Adults entering college for the first time, or returning after a long period of absence, can visit with the Special Populations Coordinator in Support Services or attend one of the free Adult Student Workshops held several times each year.

Next Adult Student Workshop to be announced.
Please call 903-510-2395 to sign up.

Adult Student Workshops are open to anyone 21 years or older who is interested in returning to college. They are designed for those individuals with a high school diploma or General Educational Development (GED), who may be the first in their family to attend college, and who may lack financial resources for tuition/fees or other needs while attending college. This might include single parents, displaced homemakers, or other adults who need retraining for a new career.

The workshop will include a representative from the offices of Admissions/ Registration, Testing, Financial Aid, Support Services, Distance Learning and the counselors from each academic school, Allied Health & Nursing, Applied Studies, Continuing Studies and University Studies.

Advance reservation is urged. Those wishing to register may call the TJC Support Services office at 903-510-2395. Long-distance callers may reach the TJC switchboard toll-free during regular business hours by dialing 1-800-687-5680, ext. 2395.  Or, you may e-mail jada@tjc.edu

Tyler Junior College gives equal consideration to all applicants for admission, employment and participation in its programs and activities without regard to race, creed, color, national origin, gender, age, marital status, disability or veteran status.
