Haverhill and Lawrence, MA (September 15, 2023) – Northern Essex Community College will host a series of special information sessions for prospective students interested in the MassReconnect program. The program officially launched just ahead of the fall 2023 semester.

This last-dollar support covers tuition and fees, including books and materials stipends.
At Northern Essex, nearly 120 students across 31 degree and certificate programs have received a MassReconnect award so far. That number is expected to increase with Fall Session II classes starting on October 30 and following a series of special information sessions.
