TuitionTuition for Bates’ 53 Career Education programs varies by program and programs vary in duration. Quarterly tuition ranges from $1,079.28 to $1,946.41. To get tuition information on the specific program that interests you, see http://www.bates.ctc.edu/eo/CareerTraining/pdf/tuition.pdf or call 253.680.7019. Financial AidFinancial aid is available for eligible students. Students and their families do not necessarily need to be considered low-income to qualify for some kinds of financial aid, but students must demonstrate financial need to be eligible for federal assistance. Even if you’re receiving financial assistance from agency sources (L&I, VA, DVR, WorkSource, WorkFirst), you may be eligible for additional grant aid from state and federal financial aid sources. We determine eligibility by comparing the difference between the cost of attending school and what you and your family can afford to pay.

Apply EarlyStudents are encouraged to apply for financial aid as early as possible since pre-qualification may take up to eight weeks from your application submission date. Award of financial aid notification is by mail and begins in the month of July. Financial aid is intended to supplement, not replace, a person’s resources. If your combined resources aren’t sufficient to cover expenses, you may be eligible for financial aid in the form of grants, scholarships, low-interest loans, or work study employment. Information submitted on the financial aid form determines your eligibility for grants, scholarships, work study and low-interest loans. Students should plan to use personal resources to buy books and supplies prior to their first financial aid disbursement.

Eligibility for Financial AidA student is eligible for financial aid if he or she is:• Attending Bates to obtain a degree or certificate• A U.S. citizen or eligible non-citizen• Making satisfactory progress in a program of study, as defined by the institution’s satisfactory progress criteria• Not in default on any previous student loans or owing a refund on any grant • Registered for the draft with Selective Service, if required by law • A high school graduate, a GED completer, or earn passing scores

on the COMPASS exam

Foundation FAQsWho can apply for Foundation scholarships? All Bates students registered in degree and certificate programs are eligible to apply for scholarships. Some scholarships are open to all students while others are limited to specific programs. Please read each scholarship announcement to determine eligibility.

Can I apply for a scholarship if I receive financial aid? Yes. We encourage you to apply for scholarships even if you are receiving financial aid. But any funds you receive as a scholarship are deducted from your financial aid budget. I already have a degree. May I still apply for a scholarship? Yes. Previous educational experience does not disqualify you from applying for scholarships through the Foundation.

Can I apply for a scholarship even if I received one in a previous quarter? Yes. We encourage you to apply for scholarships each quarter. I already receive funding for tuition.

Why should I apply for a scholarship? Some scholarships provide funding for tuition as well as books and supplies. If an outside agency covers your tuition and supplies, you are not eligible to apply for scholarships. If an agency pays tuition only, you may apply for scholarships to help pay for books and supplies.

How do I use my scholarship for books and supplies? If a scholarship provides for books and supplies, students have two options: • The Bates Bookstore will establish an account for you to charge books and supplies. You submit all receipts to the Foundation Office, M332, Downtown Campus. • If you want to purchase books and supplies elsewhere, seek Foundation approval before you make your purchase. Submit your signed receipts along with documentation signed by your instructor verifying that the books and supplies are relevant to the training. The Bates Foundation then reimburses you by check.

Athena Nation - Finding her voice“I didn’t find Bates, Bates found me,” says Athena Nation, broadcasting and video production student.

“I was on my way to the Department of Social and Health Services, and Bates’ Mohler Campus sign leapt out at me. I knew this was where I wanted to be.”

Athena spent 10 years working in film and theater in Seattle. Through difficult life circumstances, she and her young son moved to Tacoma in 2005.

“My goal is to work in public broadcasting,” says Athena. “When I think about what I want to do, I want to exude honor in broadcasting. For me, college is my last second chance to look at what I want out of life.”

Soon after enrolling in Bates’ Broadcasting and Video Production program in December 2008, Athena became active in the Associated Student Government. Today, she serves as a campus senator for Mohler Campus. “As a senator, I represent students’ voices and bring up issues and ideas. It’s a great way to hone my leadership skills,” she says.

In addition to her duties as a campus senator, Athena volunteers at the Tutoring Center, tutoring students in math and English. The recipient of several Bates Foundation scholarships, she also served as keynote speaker at this year’s Heart of Bates fundraiser.

“I wouldn’t be in school without the Foundation’s scholarships to give me that financial bump for books and childcare for my son. What seems like a little bit can be stretched out,” she says. “The help I received from the Foundation allowed me to go forward and attain something better for my family.”

The rewards of scholarships go beyond the money, says Athena.

“I’ve lost the fear of failing,” she says of applying for scholarships. “Writing scholarship applications allows students to speak for themselves. It says, ‘I believe I’m worth the investment.’ It took me 20 years to feel I’m worth a scholarship, and Bates helped me realize that.”

Tisha Janzen - Powering a dream When she was only 16 and pregnant, Tisha Janzen withdrew from high school and enrolled at Bates to earn her GED.

“My dad owned a residential construction company, and he gave me a job while I was working toward my GED,” says Tisha. “Because of that experience, I knew I wanted to own my own electrical construction company someday.”

But Tisha wanted to begin her pursuit with some business basics. “I needed background on how to handle the office portion of owning a business, and Bates was the perfect place to begin my journey.”

As soon as she finished her GED, she enrolled in Bates’ Accounting/Bookkeeping program. When she earned her certificate in that program, she immediately enrolled in Electrical Construction.

Now, Tisha is a working mother with three children. She is studying for her Electrical Business Administrator license—something most students work toward following an apprenticeship—and will graduate in June with an associate’s degree in both Electrical Construction and Accounting/Bookkeeping.

Tisha’s motivation attracted the attention of the Bates Foundation. “With scholarships from the Bates Foundation, I was able to purchase extra tools and pay for other college expenses, which was a tremendous help,” says Tisha.

Only 11 years after dropping out of high school, Tisha has transformed her future. “Today, I’m one step closer to owning my own electrical construction company. If it wasn’t for Bates, I don’t know where I’d be.”

General EducationAssociate degrees and certificates of competency require students to complete a specific number of pre-college and college-level General Education courses. Requirements vary depending on the career education program, the credential, and the track a student chooses to pursue. Students should plan to take at least one GE or basic studies course each quarter until they meet the GE requirement for their intended credential.

General education courses are open to career education high school and other students pursuing college credit or preparatory goals and include college-level and college-preparatory courses. Prerequisites are based on COMPASS scores or completion of previous course work. Some students may need to build basic skills in mathematics, reading or writing before taking a general education course.

Bates Technical College has implemented Common Course Numbering for ease of course transfer among the state’s 34 community and technical colleges.

Chris Tilzer - A sound success

Chris Tilzer first came to Bates as a teenager to take his GED test.

Four years later, he visited a Seattle radio station to observe the radio program, “The Buzz.” “That’s when I decided to get into the field of radio broadcasting,” he says.

For the next seven years, Chris worked for three of the four major Seattle radio companies. When the economy soured and he was laid off, he offered his talents to Educational Arts Resource Services, Inc. (EARS, Inc.). He spent five weeks in Pakistan teaching students at the University of Peshawar how to write, produce and broadcast radio dramas.

“This was this city’s first live performance in 10 years,” says Chris. “It was an important endeavor because creating the radio drama gave students an outlet for creativity and social justice issues.”

Chris had such a great experience that he decided to participate in another educational opportunity overseas. This time, Chris spent nearly four weeks in Yemen as a technical director, where he taught students at a local university how to use microphones, edit, create and produce live sound effects and more.

“It was amazing, fantastic work,” he says. “Bringing in technology they didn’t have was really important to me.”

When Chris returned home, he turned his attention to remaining marketable. Chris knew he had to enroll in college to learn more about his field, and Bates seemed like a good fit.

Chris will earn his Associates of Technology degree in Broadcasting and Video Production next year, and, because of his positive experience abroad, he hopes to take the foreign services exam and work for the U.S. Department of State.

Chris decided to pursue broadcast electronics following his lay off and overseas adventures. “I am learning studio operations, audio and video production—the more I know about the field, the better I’ll do,” says Chris. “If it wasn’t for Bates, I may not have stayed current with the industry.”

David Ellis - The spark for change

David Ellis’ sixth grade teacher sparked his fascination with electronics. “My teacher introduced me to electricity and electronics at a young age through experiments with batteries, electrical currents and fuses. I’ve been interested in this area ever since,” says David.

David pursued teaching to make a difference in his community—to help students learn. He felt he could provide them with a different perspective on learning. After a three-year stint as a middle school and high school teacher, David felt like he didn’t have the resources to properly help the students, so he decided to switch gears.

“I originally enrolled in Electrical Power and Process Automation in 2009 with the intent of moving to another program involving computer networking,” says David. “However, I enjoyed the electronics part so much that I decided to stay rather than switch programs.”

This year, David rebuilt several circuit boards used for the Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium’s Zoolights. He eventually wants to construct a small stage with blinking lights for his daughters, ages 1, 3 and 5.

“My instructor, Mr. (Tom) Newman (pictured above), answers any questions I have,” says David. “He is exceptionally helpful and will go out of his way for his students.”

David couldn’t be happier with his career switch. “When I trained to be a teacher, I knew what I was getting into,” he says. “When I began this program, I found that I could find a career doing one of several tasks, from maintenance and repair to power, automation and robotics.”

Set to graduate next fall, David hopes to land an apprenticeship with an electrical power company such as the Bonneville Power Company or Puget Sound Energy.

Dmitriy Kostyanchuk - The American dreamA journeyman in his home country of Ukraine, Dmitriy Kostyanchuk was a skillful sheet metal worker who supervised a crew and built numerous onion dome-style churches. In 2004, Dmitriy sought a better life for his family and immigrated to America.

Despite the language barrier, Dmitriy found a job in a furniture making factory. “I could build furniture frames for fun, but it’s not my job,” he says.

A co-worker who earned a degree in furniture upholstery at Bates told Dimitriy about the college and took him on a tour.

“This is exactly what I need,” recalls Dmitriy. “My language wasn’t good, but I could learn.”

He soon enrolled in Sheet Metal Technology and English as a Second Language classes.

“I spent my vacation, evenings and weekends studying English—I studied so hard my eyes started to go,” he says.

Dmitriy earned his associate’s degree in Sheet Metal Technology in just 18 months. It takes most students two years to complete the program. He entered into the Washington Sheet Metal Joint Apprenticeship Training Committee and became gainfully employed, working in the industry.

“Two years ago, I bought a house, built a bonus room and expanded it, and I built a new roof,” he boasts. “This is possible because there is a college like this for people like me.”

Dmitriy’s life has gone from good to great in just five years. “I hear about the American dream—house, education—so I worked on it and did it,” he says. “I had a good opportunity to do something for my future by getting a degree, and I worked very hard for it. If it’s possible to accomplish what I did here, then it’s a good country,” Dmitriy says with a smile.

General Education

Instructor Steve MacKay with Sheet Metal students

“Every day was something I looked forward to because I made the course work for me.- Homer Tolentino

Homer Tolentino - Guitar hero After retiring from the Air Force as a calibration technician, Homer Tolentino decided to pursue his dream of building guitars. “I wanted to do something completely different than what I did in the Air Force,” says Homer.

Following that passion led him to Bates’ Architectural Woodworking/Cabinet Making Technology program. “Because many guitar makers are also cabinet makers,” he says. He enrolled in 2007.

“My goal was to get the basics of woodworking out of the program,” he says. “When I discovered there was a Computer Numerical Control (CNC) milling machine in the shop, I knew I would leave with knowledge in guitar making. I got more than I bargained for!”

With a growing list of customers requesting guitars, Homer spent countless hours on his own researching how to use the CNC to create guitars. He notes his instructor, Steve Dziedziak, was very supportive of his efforts.

“Every day was something I looked forward to because I made the course work for me. The instructors are great! Not only did I get help from Steve,” says Homer, “but there was also Bob [Storrar] from the Machinist program who helped with CNC operation, Art [Cutting] from Electronic Equipment Service Technician, and Bob Ackein from Mechanical Engineering who helped scan my drawings.”

Homer credits his success to drive and commitment. “I didn’t go straight into my specialty without making and installing cabinets first,” he cautions.

For Homer, Bates is a new beginning. “My passion has always been guitars,” he says. Now, Homer has a waiting list of more than one year. “With the backlog of orders, I had to get the company started, and Bates helped me do that.”

Growing Green FamiliesEven though cold and flu season has passed, it’s never too late to learn effective green cleaning practices to keep germs at bay while avoiding harsh chemicals in your household.

Growing Green Families explores how to green your household and create a healthier home. Learn how to incorporate green principles and sustainable practices into your daily activities.

“My goal is to provide simple, easy to implement green ideas that people can feel good about,” says instructor Hillary Ryan.

“From cloth diapering to toxins in toys, to hybrid vehicles, there is so much to take in that often people get discouraged. Making green choices can be as simple as taking cloth bags to the grocery store or changing your light bulbs.”

Whatever you do, it’s easier than you think to go green. Let Bates show you how. Learn more on page 27.

Sean Dulaney - Dressed for successFor Sean Dulaney, looking professional is part of his service to his customers. “It gives my customers more trust in my abilities,” says the Arcadia, La. native.

As a recent graduate of Bates’ barbering program, Sean’s professional appearance and attitude helped him land a job at The Laurel Barber Shop in Port Angeles. Barbering Instructor Jeff Olsen connected him with the position at 2004 graduate Ron Schlemmer’s business.

Sean decided to pursue the career when sitting in Bates graduate Pete Lira’s barber chair at THEE Barber Shop on 9th Street and Pacific Avenue. “I had been laid off from the bike shop where I worked, and I had been going to him, and I asked, ‘What I should do?’ Pete said, ‘Why don’t you become a barber?’” explains Sean.

To help him along the way, Pete gave Sean a job as a shoe shiner. That’s when Sean picked up his practice of donning dapper duds. “I learned a lot about professional appearance, how to conduct myself in the barber shop, and what it means to be a barber,” he says.

He signed on to the waiting list for the Bates barbering program, got his financial aid application in process, and shined shoes for the next three months to pay rent and finance his tool kit and book purchase. “In Pete, I saw a barber who had been a successful here all of his life, and I decided if I got my education here, the same would happen for me,” says Sean.

With hands-on training in Bates working Barber shop, nine months later, Sean is now ready to begin his own success journey. “People are here to work and people are here to learn for their next chapter in life,” he says.

Emmanuel Victor Moriba - Building a better futureCarpentry student Emmanuel Victor Moriba is here at Bates to help build a better future for Sierra Leone.

A native of the West African country, Victor is a member of the Mende tribe. He attended school in Freetown, one of the most violent areas during the 11-Year War.

After high school, Emmanuel joined the Kailondo Theatre, and then the Kakua Drama Company. Both companies specialized in using drama as a way to confront the pain and suffering in the war-torn country. “During the 11-year war, I was involved in a massive trauma healing throughout the country for those [who were] affected by the war,” says Emmanuel. He also worked with the Gambia Family Planning Association to produce “Living in Love,” a 31-part television series to raise awareness of the HIV/AIDs pandemic.

In 2008, Emmanuel traveled to the United States to study English as a Second Language at Kirkwood Community College in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. He planned to continue his theatre work, but another mission became more important.

“I had long developed the passion for improving the housing problem in my country, which was created by the war. I then travelled to Washington because of the weather condition and discovered Bates Technical College,” said Emmanuel.

He learned about Bates’ carpentry program online. The program will help him realize his vision of bringing better construction methods to Sierra Leone. “I want to take what I learn here from my instructor Chris Buselmeier and introduce a new style of building there,” he explains.

At Bates, Emmanuel will get the training he needs to achieve his vision for better housing in Sierra Leone. “The U.S. has been my dreamland since I was in my 20s. I am happy to be at Bates,” he says. Aeriele Johnson, Legal Office Assistant student
