The Durham County commissioners approved its 2025-26 budget this week, demonstrating once again their commitment to public higher education in Durham. The budget continues their support for the College’s Back to Work short-term workforce development scholarships, BULLS Life Sciences program, Durham Tech Promise scholarships, and apprenticeship opportunities. Our commissioners also provided an overall budget increase to address rising operational costs as well as funding county salary increases in line with estimated state budget salary increases.

Durham Tech student Juan-Pablo Quintanilla Ha began his interest in the Fidelity Scholars program during high school, when a guidance counselor shared information on the program.
“After learning about the Fidelity program from a high school counselor of mine, I researched the program and found I was a fit because of my Latino-Asian descent, but also because of my academic excellence and it helped that I am a go-getter,” said Ha, who was one of the Durham Tech students selected for the program. “I was then all about the program and how it could help me get a college education.”
Ha saw Fidelity’s program as a way to receive money for college, but quickly learned it was much more.
