We are thrilled to share this real example of how the SUNY Reconnect program is helping people change their careers and their lives, right here at SUNY FMCC and across New York State.
Meet George Dunckley. After 25 years of postal delivery truck driving and municipal housing work, George enrolled at SUNY FMCC at 53 and is well on his way to an associate’s degree in Addiction Services, thanks to SUNY Reconnect. This fall, 91 FMCC students are using the program to pursue high demand fields tuition free, and starting in January 2027 even more New Yorkers will be eligible.
Ready for a new chapter? Learn more about SUNY Reconnect at FMCC. Spring semester will be here soon, and even those with a previous college degree may be eligible. Visit: https://fmcc.edu/admissions-aid-2/free-community-college
