What is the Kern Project?
The UCLA School of Education & Information Studies and Kern County are partnering to offer a free concurrent enrollment course to high school and community college students.
Enrolled students have access to our UCLA College Mentors, who are here to help with any support you need throughout the rest of the school year, including scholarship applications, financial aid forms, and resume building.
