SCC to host RegFest, a one-stop registration event, June 19

St. Charles Community College will host RegFest at 2-8 p.m. Wednesday, June 19. SCC RegFest is an afternoon and evening full of food, prizes, music and educational planning – meant for the whole family.

Future students of all ages can learn what degree programs SCC offers, meet with financial aid and A+ Program advisors to discuss eligibility and benefits, become familiar with the process for getting enrolled, gain insight from current and former students, and take all the steps necessary to get enrolled.  A drawing will be held in which as many as three student participants will take home a $1,000 scholarship to SCC for use in the Fall 2013 semester. 

“We created RegFest to make enrolling at SCC fun and easy for potential students,” said Kathy Brockgreitens-Gober, dean of enrollment services. “For those who haven’t yet enrolled for fall classes, it isn’t too late. We are hosting RegFest to help.”
