Fee Waiver and Book Loan Program Application
Running Start (RS) students may apply to have student-voted fees waived and to borrow
required textbooks if they meet specific eligibility criteria stated on the form.
Applications must be submitted no later than the Friday before the quarter starts
to the RS office. Students only need to apply once during their time in RS. Application/approval
cannot be retroactively to previous quarters. Students are still responsible for individual
class fees, access codes and other supplies. Textbooks are not guaranteed and are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

High School Release
This form must be completed by Running Start students who wish to enroll in classes
during summer quarter. Running Start funding does not cover summer tuition or fees.
Release of Information (for FERPA)
Running Start students have rights which protect the privacy of their educational
records. All student educational records are maintained according to the Family Educational
Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA). Only directory information can be released
without your authorization. You may complete and submit a Release of Information form
to the Running Start office to allow Running Start staff permission to discuss your
records with parent(s) or guardian(s) or other designated persons.
This form must be submitted by the student who is authorizing a release of information;
it cannot be submitted by someone else on a students' behalf. Please complete the release of information form and submit to the Running Start Office
in-person with photo ID. Alternately, you can upload it to Running Start and visit our Zoom virtual
lobby to show your photo ID.
Graduate High School Through College Issued Diploma
Running Start students may earn a high school diploma issued by Green River College by completing any associate degree, even if they have not otherwise met the high school graduation requirements (e.g., credits, state assessments, high school and beyond plan, and culminating project)*. While this option may be beneficial for some students, there are several important considerations to make before deciding to pursue this option.
**Most students do not pursue this option and choose to obtain their diploma through
their high school. Please read through the form for more information.
