The University Diploma may not be
for you if . . .
your cumulative GPA for 3 semesters (from 9th grade year, and semester 1
of 10th grade) is not at least a 2.00 (C average)
Why?
1.
if your GPA isn’t a 2.00 then or now, will it increase as classes get more
challenging?
2.
4 year universities’ admission require a ≥ 2.00 cumulative GPA.
3. your EXPLORE or PLAN English sub scores are indicating you are Not
ready for a 4-Yr university right out of high school.
4 you prefer to work with your hands, be outside, work with equipment,
etc. more than working and studying in a classroom setting?
Jumpstart Career Plan may be for
you if . . .
1. a good Career Interest Survey indicates you would be better matched to
careers which require less than a 4 year degree. www.mynextmove.org
2. you want to make as much money or more with a Technical or 2 year
college degree than some people make who earn degrees requiring 4 to
6 years after high school.
3. you want to fill a growing need for high demand, high wage jobs that
require technical skills, not just “book knowledge.”
4. it’s in your best interest to attend a Louisiana Community Technical
College.
What Can You Do With a JUMPSTART
Diploma?

1. Go straight to work or the military.

2. Attend one of our Louisiana Community/Technical Colleges (LCTC)

then go to work at a position that requires a degree/certification from a

LCTC.

3. Earn a Louisiana Transfer Degree from a LCTC and transfer to a 4-YR

University, and you can still earn a 4-YR degree or even a more advanced

degree.*

*Many successful professionals started their education at Community Colleges
& went on to earn Master’s degrees, Doctoral degrees, became lawyers,
doctors pharmacists, professors, etc. This may be the correct path for you.
