Free citizenship courses prepare adults to take the test for U.S. Citizenship. The course is based on "The 100 Questions" and includes three learning modules:
- Procedures and History
- Government and Constitutions
- Customs
In addition, students will learn about procedures and processes involved in the path to U.S. Citizenship including the application and passing the interview.
All students must take a placement test and attend a short orientation/intake session prior to registration. Placement testing, orientation and registration take approximately 2½ hours. Children are not allowed in the testing room so please plan ahead.
