Graduates from 15 San Antonio high schools are invited to enroll in San Antonio College's Senior Summer Program, which runs for six weeks from June 7 - July 14. The application deadline is Friday, May 28. Graduates can get a head start on college by enrolling in up to six or seven hours of courses, with college-credit classes transferable to any college.

"This specially designed program makes the transition from high school to college more painless by grouping the recently graduated high school seniors together into their own sections in courses in developmental math, English or reading," said Program Coordinator Javier Vargas.

In addition, college-credit courses are available in history, government, sociology, math, English, and student development. The Student Development class helps students fine-tune their test taking, study, and time management skills.

He said scholarships and grants are available for students, who should complete a 2003-2004 financial aid form.

Participating high schools include Burbank, Edison, Fox Tech, Harlandale, Highlands, Jefferson, Kennedy, Lanier, Lee, McCullum, Memorial, Sam Houston, Southside, Southwest, and South San.

Classes will meet Monday-Friday, with the earliest class starting at 8:40 a.m. and the latest starting at 1:30 p.m. For more information, call Javier Vargas at 733-2475
