Today at 6: NOVA to Host JumpStart2NOVA Info Session

NOVA is pleased to announce that “JumpStart2NOVA” is back for the summer 2022 term! NOVA’s award-winning JumpStart program returns this summer with a new focus, to help graduating high school seniors get started on their NOVA journey. A virtual information session will be held on this evening at 6 p.m. for incoming students and their parents. The session will offer step by step guidance on how to register for JumpStart2NOVA and will also offer a question-and-answer session.

This year’s programming will be offered for qualified high school seniors graduating in spring 2022 who are considering coming to NOVA after high school. Participants may take one 3-credit course and our 1-credit College Success Skills course, SDV-100, virtually through NOVAOnline with the cost of tuition waived. Courses are open to public, private and home school graduating seniors residing in NOVA’s service region, which includes the City of Alexandria, Arlington County, City of Falls Church, Fairfax City, Fairfax County, Loudoun County, City of Manassas, City of Manassas Park and Prince William County.  Students will be required to pay for textbooks or other course materials.

First-time NOVA students will need to apply to NOVA and create an account at nvcc.dualenroll.com to request their “JumpStart2NOVA” course.
