It’s high school graduation season in New Hampshire, and we’re celebrating students across the state as they prepare for what’s next.

We also want to congratulate the high school students graduating with Great Bay Community College credits already in hand. Through our Early College program, students can fulfill high school graduation requirements while earning college credits that can be applied within CCSNH and transferred to colleges and universities nationwide.

With substantial tuition discounts and exemptions, Early College helps students save thousands of dollars and get a head start on their college education.

Wherever you’re headed next, congratulations on all you’ve accomplished.

☀️DYK?: CAPS summer support starts this week!☀️

Writing help at Great Bay goes far beyond commas and citations.

CAPS Writing Center Specialist Erik Hinnov shares how tutoring becomes an extension of the classroom, helping students brainstorm, organize ideas, revise with confidence, and figure out not just what they want to say, but why it matters.

And yes, sometimes snacks are part of the process. 🍫

It was a great turnout for last week’s annual Guidance Counselor Breakfast hosted by our Admissions Team.

We appreciate the counselors from Spaulding, Dover, Oyster River, Exeter, Portsmouth, and Prospect Mountain High Schools who joined us to learn more about Great Bay Community College’s academic and workforce development offerings, including certificate programs in Medical Assisting, Phlebotomy, and Culinary Arts & Sustainable Foodways.

The group also received updates on Early College, WorkReadyNH, and Student Life before touring our new welding lab.

We’re always grateful for the opportunity to connect with this important group and share the many pathways and opportunities available to students at GBCC.
