TN Reconnect

Tennessee Reconnect is an initiative to help more adults return to higher education to gain new skills, advance in the workplace, and fulfill lifelong dreams of completing a degree or credential.

Reconnect Navigators are a single point of contact that can help you navigate the path to college. They provide free, institution-neutral college navigation services, career exploration tools, and assistance with understanding financial aid & college costs. Reconnect Navigators can also help you select a college and a major that fit your interests and career goals. Once you’ve enrolled in college, they will continue to support, guide and encourage you until you graduate.

Any adult Tennessee resident can qualify for this free assistance by completing the online form on the Reconnect website.

Beginning in 2019, the State of Tennessee created the Re-entry Navigators as a part of the Correctional Education Investment. Now, each region of Tennessee has a designated Re-entry Navigator specifically for people who have been impacted by the criminal justice system. Re-Entry Navigators are available to meet with you while you are incarcerated in most TDOC facilities, and after you return home.

The Tennessee Reconnect Grant is available for Tennessee adults who want to pursue an associate degree, technical degree, or technical diploma at a Tennessee community college or technical college, and who have not already previously earned an associate degree. The Tennessee Reconnect Grant is a last-dollar grant that pays any remaining balance of tuition and fees that aren’t covered through other grants and scholarships.
