COMPLETE 2 COMPETE (C2C)
The C2C program has been relaunched at all Mississippi public colleges and universities with a renewed focus on providing assistance to students most in need.* The program's mission remains unchanged—increasing the number of Mississippi adults with credentials of value.
To accomplish our mission we will continue striving to remove barriers that keep adult learners who have earned college credits—but not a degree*—from returning and completing their degree.
The C2C program provides one-on-one support from application through graduation. Dedicated coaches are on staff at each of Mississippi’s eight public universities, 15 public community colleges, and the medical center.

WHAT’S NEW?
To fulfill our commitment, participation in the C2C Program is available to anyone who is 21 years of age and older, has earned at least 12 college credit hours, and left college at least two years ago without earning a degree.*
To help overcome financial barriers, C2C will continue to offer participating returning students a renewable grant of $1,000 each qualifying semester. In order to serve those most in need, the eligibility requirements for the C2C Grant have been updated to include a maximum household income and age limit. The C2C Grant application, along with instructions for submission and complete eligibility requirements can be found on the C2C Grant Page.
Note: C2C Grant funds are distributed to eligible applicants on a first-come, first-served basis and subject to funding availability.
*An eligibility exception will be made for otherwise qualifying adults, who completed an associate degree, earned 90+ credit hours, and wish to pursue a bachelor’s degree in University Studies.
