How will CE credit affect my high school and/or college GPA? Are Home-Schooled students eligible to apply for Concurrent Enrollment? How much will this cost? How many courses can I enroll in? When is the latest I can drop/withdrawal from a course without being penalized? Will my credits transfer to other institutions? How would Concurrent Enrollment credit affect my ability to obtain a scholarship? How could I find out more information about a course? What happens if the course is too difficult?

We can take college classes at our high school and earn real credit, transferable credit. We save a lot of time and money. We transition better from high school to college We are introduced to college procedures and policies. We have UVU resources at our high school and on campus. We gain experience and confidence to succeed in college! WHY?

Affordable access to higher education. Presence of a college-going culture. Strengthened transition between high school and college. Administration, faculty, and counselors receive professional development. College resources available to students and teachers. Funding for advanced curriculum and learning opportunities. Funding for additional courses or sections. WHY?

Principals: Concurrent Enrollment Aint What it Used to Be…  All UVU CE courses must be CTE, General Education, Prerequisite for a Major or GE, or Major requirement.  All UVU CE courses are reviewed annually by the CE department as well as the corresponding department on campus. Course content and assessment must match or be equal to what is delivered on campus.  All CE courses are reviewed by local districts as well as by the Utah State Office of Education every year.  All CE instructors are considered adjunct faculty and must have the same credentials as those teaching on campus.  All CE instructors must receive department-specific training, department visits, professional development, and CE training each year in order to be compliant.  All CE students apply and are registered as UVU students. They must meet the same prerequisites, must do the same work, and will generate an official transcript. WHY Concurrent Enrollment? It can benefit families, schools, and communities!

The National Alliance of Concurrent Enrollment Partnerships (NACEP) works to ensure that college courses offered by high school teachers are as rigorous as courses offered on the sponsoring college campus. As the sole accrediting body for concurrent enrollment partnerships, NACEP helps these programs adhere to the highest standards so students experience a seamless transition to college and teachers benefit from meaningful, ongoing professional development. NACEP standards include Curriculum, Faculty, Student, Assessment, and Program Evaluation. Utah Valley University is accredited by The National Alliance of Concurrent Enrollment Partnerships
