What Running 开始 涵盖了

In the Running 开始 Program, your tuition is paid for by your public school district.  There are limitations though: your high school will only cover your tuition up to the point where you are just above full time enrollment. You can find this information on your Enrollment Verification form or by talking with your high school counselor for how many Running 开始 credits your school will cover given the amount high school classes you are taking.

What Running 开始 does not cover

Running 开始 does not cover student fees. Student fees cover services provided on campus such as labs, technology, and the recreation center. Private music lessons will result in additional fees. For more information, visit 学费 & 费用.

We also do not cover course required textbooks. 学生 are not required to purchase textbooks through the WVC bookstore. If you find a cheaper option on another website you can purchase it there. 

If you go above the limit on credits your high school will cover for you,  you will have to pay for them. Summer quarter may be covered, depending on eligibility. Running 开始 only 涵盖了 college-level courses (numbered 100 or above). 

Transportation is not covered/provided by Running 开始. However, students do have 进入 联系运输 公共汽车 for free by using their WVC student ID card.

Assist students may also see a reduction in their student fees and a waiver in 3 additional credits if they choose to go over the amount listed on their EV form.
