LEWISTON — Lewiston Adult Education will conduct a College Transition Program beginning in September for anyone needing to prepare for college and/or apply for scholarships. The free program reviews reading, writing and math skills in a college-style setting and will include an expanded focus on time management as well as finding and applying for scholarships.

Classes begin Tuesday, Sept. 12, at Lewiston Adult Education’s suite at the B Street Community Center, 57 Birch St. The 14-week fall session will be held Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9 a.m. to noon.

Students will visit the University of Southern Maine’s Lewiston-Auburn College, Central Maine Community College and Kaplan University during the semester. Representatives from Northeast Technical Institute, the Maine Educational Opportunity Center and the Finance Authority of Maine will make classroom appearances.
