HICKMAN
COUNTY
HIGHER EDUCATION
INFORMATION
(along with some planning, financial aid, and
entrance exam information)
There are many choices
of higher educational institutions that offer classes and programs in
the area. More accessible higher education opportunities is a
goal for the county. There are quite a few options in the area
already and the following list may help you in your search for the best
alternative. Higher education can take many forms -- anything
from one class to learn a specific topic, to vocational training, to
degree programs, to graduate degrees -- on campus, off campus, and/or
distance learning. Though you may know what you want to do and
where you want to do it, an examination of all your options should
prove to be beneficial.
Though there are fewer
financial aid options for non-traditional students, this page includes
links that specifically addresses financial aid and other issues for
the non-traditional student.
The following web sites
include general information (where, when, what's offered) along with
admission and financial aid information.
We hope that this
information is helpful. Good luck on your quest for knowledge and
don't be afraid to ask questions at any stage of your lifelong learning.

Remember, it is okay
to prepare for entrance exams, either
through a prep course or on your own. Scoring higher on the
entrance exam
may mean avoiding non-credit remedial or developmental courses or
becoming
eligible for additional scholarships and financial aid.
