Good morning **** **,

Thank you so much for reaching out to me regarding the Registered Apprenticeship Program offered at Coastal Pines Technical College. The apprenticeship program is an on-the-job training program that is offered to current students at Coastal Pines. You must be enrolled in an academic program at the college to participate.

There are two pathways to participation in the program:

Pathway 1 – Current Coastal Pines Student Placement

• This pathway allows current students to be placed in an apprenticeship employment position with one of 31 apprenticeship partners.

If you are not enrolled at the college, you would need to apply for admissions and be accepted to the college.

• Link to the Admissions Application: https://coastalpines.edu/admissions/apply-now
• It is FREE Application Month for the month of November. You can apply for free using the code MATCH23
• You would work with the Office of Admissions to get admitted and then an academic advisor would work with you to select classes.

Pathway 2 – Apprenticeship Partner Employees Can Enroll in Classes

• If you are an employee at a participating Apprenticeship Partner and you need to gain an additional skill or trade, the company can choose to send you to the college to enroll in an academic program that aligns with the job you have at the company.

Undocumented immigrants can participate in the Registered Apprenticeship Program. They will need to have the ability to pay out of pocket for tuition/fees/books associated with their academic program. The rate of tuition and fees are more for foreign students (non-us citizens).

 If you have any questions, please let me know.

Take Care,

Kimberly

Please tell us how undocumented immigrants can participate in the apprenticeship program?

Thank you,

• We note that a congressional district is about 760,000 people (illegal aliens included in the count).

GAfutures numbers have nine digits – just like an SSN.

Thank you for reaching out.  If a student does not provide a SSN, then GAfutures automatically assigns a nine-digit number (typically beginning with 777).

Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

Kindest,

My friend is undocumented and wants to know about the Dual Enrollment program.
As she has no SSN we see she can get a GA Futures number when she fills out the application for DE. Please tell us how many digits are in the GAFutures numbers? Are they spaced like Social Security numbers, please?
Thank you if you can help us understand.
