Traditional Students

In academic terms, traditional students are recent high school graduates who enter college shortly after graduation. BCC has a free summer program (see College Connection) for graduating high school seniors from Berkshire County who have been admitted to BCC for the fall semester. The program is a collaboration between BCC and area high school faculty.

Held weekdays in August, the College Connection program allows students to get a head start on their transition from high school to college. Components include: math, English, computer technology, stress management and the dos and don’ts of a successful first semester in college. Interested students should contact their guidance counselor/advisor or high school representative.
