Hinds Community College will offer GED recipients who are first-time college students a free college class beginning in January. The Hinds Community College Board of Trustees Wednesday approved a new tuition award and scholarship for adults who receive a GED instead of a traditional high school diploma.

The GED Tuition Award and Scholarship Programs are for first-time college students who are Mississippi residents and are at least 18 years old.

The Tuition Award allows a new Hinds student with a GED, or General Education Development certificate, to take one three-hour class at any of the six Hinds locations free of charge.

The GED Scholarship will cover the cost of tuition for a half-time student who is taking at least six hours or a half-tuition scholarship for a full-time student if the student has made 577 or higher on the GED test. The scholarship covers tuition only and is renewable for a total of four semesters if the student maintains a 2.5 grade point average.
