High School Enrollment

All high school students in Pennsylvania may participate in tuition-free vocational and technical training at a public school. We encourage students who have a desire for training and a specific interest in a field to enroll in one of our programs. We have a specific protocol for high school admissions:

  • Review the course(s) of interest, and discuss your career plans with your parents and the guidance counselor of your home school.
  • Fill out our online High School Application form. You may also download an application form or pick one up from your guidance counselor or at a GJCTC campus.
  • Complete the front of the application, and choose up to three programs. Be sure to number your choices in order of preference. You and your parents must sign the application.
  • Return the application to your high school counselor or to GJCTC to complete and obtain the school officials’ signatures.
  • The GJCTC guidance counselor will schedule a meeting with you at your home school to review your application and career plans.
  • We will notify you by mail of your acceptance into a vocational area. At that time, we will also notify you of your orientation time at GJCTC.
  • If you are a special needs student, be sure to request to have a GJCTC representative at your IEP conference.

Adult Education

We accept students into our adult programs based on specific program requirements. To begin the process, you must:

  • Schedule appointment to interview with our career counselor by calling (814) 266-6073, ext. 201.
  • For admission into the adult programs (excluding short-term programs), provide a high school diploma or GED.
  • Pay a non-refundable registration fee of $100 at the time of the interview.
