Running Start is a program that provides the opportunity for qualified high school juniors and seniors to enroll tuition-free in college courses as part of their high school programs of study. Books, supplies, lab fees, and transportation are the responsibility of the student. If you meet all the requirements of your school district, then you apply here and take the placement tests and begin when our quarter does. College credits may also be earned . For more information, contact your local high school counselor or the Running Start Director at BBCC at 762-5351, extension 325 or just come by Room 1410 in the 1400 Building.
College credit is available for articulated courses taken at participating high schools.
