BLUFORD — Nearly half of Webber Township High’s Class of 2019 enrolled at Rend Lake College during one of RLC’s College Signing events, Friday, in Bluford. Many of these students have already taken advantage of The Lake’s free Dual Credit program, saving themselves and their families thousands of dollars in college tuition.

By choosing to continue their education in one of more than 100 degree or certificate programs at RLC, these students are saving around $18,000 a year in tuition and fees — when compared to the average cost of a public university.

RLC will hold its next College Signing on Wednesday at Hamilton County Senior High School. Students there will have the chance to register with a trained academic advisor, receive an exclusive “I Choose Rend Lake College” tee shirt, and participate in the photo opportunity.
