Promise Program
WHAT IS THE PROMISE PROGRAM?
The Norco College Promise Program is designed to help first-time full-time college students who do not qualify for the California College Promise Grant. Students who commit to the Promise Program and maintain eligibility receive financial support during their first two years to increase their success and make college more affordable.
The Promise Program covers the $46/unit enrollment fee for the Fall and Spring semesters.
