What is a Reconnect Navigator?

Reconnect Navigators are a single point of contact that can help you navigate the path to college. They provide free, institution-neutral college navigation services, career exploration tools, and assistance with understanding financial aid & college costs. Reconnect Navigators can also help you select a college and a major that fit your interests and career goals. Once you’ve enrolled in college, they will continue to support, guide and encourage you until you graduate.

What is a Re-entry Navigator?

Re-entry Navigators are Reconnect Navigators who specialize in identifying resources for and supporting justice-involved students (a student who was previously incarcerated or has interacted with the justice system). Re-entry Navigators provide college navigation services onsite at eight Tennessee state prisons. They also partner with many state and non-profit organizations in the free world and can connect previously incarcerated students with services in their community.
