High School Special Student

If you are looking to get ahead of the game and take college courses while still in high school we have three possible routes:

• Enroll in the Early College Credit Program if you are a public or private high school student. You must receive approval from your school district for desired coursework for high school and college credit, or just college credit. Most of the cost should be covered by your school’s district/state. Spots in courses are not guaranteed.
• Enroll in the High School Special Program if you are a public or private high school student. The student/family is responsible for covering the cost of courses. Spots in courses are not guaranteed.
• The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Program allows high school students to take college level courses at the campus or their own high school. All MOUs are initiated and contracted through a staff member at the participating school district. An MOU provides guaranteed spots in a course.

How to Apply

• Fill out the 澳门葡京网赌送彩金-specific application. (View a video tutorial here that will walk you through the application.)
  Note: You are encouraged to use a personal email address when applying instead of your school email address.
• High school transcript
  Note: A high school transcript may be uploaded within the application or sent directly from your school.
• Fill out the UW System Early College Credit Program and High School Special Agreement Form and gather appropriate signatures. On this form you will be asked to indicate the coursework you intend to take. See above for information on how to view available courses.

Note on Registration

Because of the demand for some courses and limitations on enrollment, degree-seeking students are given priority in course registration. High school special students register on a space-available basis, meaning enrollment in classes is not guaranteed.
