Start Now is part of onboarding programming at Bunker Hill Community College for new, transfer and international students. It is the first step into their pathway. It opens with Financially Empowered, a 45-minute workshop on credit load, tuition and fees, financial aid and cost of attendance. A two-hour advising and registration session follows. Students confirm their pathway, pick first-term courses. Students who attend register the same day.
