Prospective Students
In 2024, PC3 will welcome its second cohort of students! Students can participate from the Southeast Michigan area or from the Upper Peninsula at two of our partner colleges. The 2024 cohort will have a hybrid, 5-week experience as they commute to their local partner institution to engage in in-person activities. Students will receive:
- Stipend
- Academic advising
- Peer-to-peer mentoring
- Job shadowing and career exploration
- Student-led, non-credit coursework
- …and more fun activities with their cohort!
Check out this webinar for more information about PC3. (Note: In the webinar, we talk about the Go Blue Gaurantee and say that students require a 3.5 GPA or higher to qualify. This is not required for the UM-Ann Arbor campus. We recommend reaching out to the University of Michigan Office of Financial Aid for any and all questions and clarifications you may have about funding your U-M education.)
Below is a list of people and resources mentioned in the presentation:
