This Thursday, PHCC launches a series of in-person advising days that will help students not only register for classes but also get connected with thousands of dollars in funding.

For students worried about the pandemic, PHCC is crafting a plan to safely and effectively provide as many services and opportunities as possible – including in-person classes and on-campus services like the food pantry and clothing closet.

Administrators say their goal is to meet students’ needs while keeping students safe.

“If you learn best in a face-to-face environment where you can interact with your peers and engage with the instructor, we can build a schedule that provides that experience. If you prefer all online classes or a mixture of face-to-face and online classes, we can create that schedule too,” said Travis Tisdale, the head of PHCC’s Advising Center. “There has never been a better time to come in and get enrolled. Some classes are already filling up and the sooner a student comes in to meet with an advisor the more likely they are to get their preferred classes and instructors.”

Before classes start on August 23, the college is planning several in-person advising events for anyone looking to register for fall classes.  Advising will be first-come, first-served, and will take place in PHCC’s Walker Fine Arts Building on:

Thursday, July 22, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Thursday, July 29, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Tuesday, Aug. 17 through Friday, Aug. 20, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Tisdale added that the college also aims to connect students with some of the many funding opportunities available.

“Over the years, I’ve never seen so many different funding opportunities available,” said Tisdale. “Before President Godwin retired, she was saying that this is going to be the ‘year of favor’ for anyone going to PHCC. She’s right.”

Some of these funding sources include G3 which stands for “Get Skilled. Get a Job. Get Ahead.” This covers 100 percent of tuition, fees, and books for students pursuing high-demand careers eligible for G3 Funding. The Re-Employing Virginians (REV) grant provides a tuition voucher of up to $3,000 for students who face unemployment or under-employment during the pandemic. Another grant can provide stipends for eligible students. There are dozens of other grants or scholarships – all of which can provide financial assistance and won’t need to be repaid.

For more information on the various funding opportunities call (276) 656-0317 or email finaid@patrickhenry.edu.

To learn more about fall classes or to register for classes remotely, call (276) 656-5482 or email advising@patrickhenry.edu.
