Early College: Get ahead by earning college credit for free through City Colleges

Join the Early College program to enroll in college-level courses while still in high school, reducing both the time and the money needed to earn a college degree.

The Early College program offers two ways for you to earn college credit: dual credit and dual enrollment. High school juniors and seniors who are at least 16 years old are eligible to participate. If you are younger than 16 and want to participate in Early College, you must get approval from the college president or vice president of your desired City Colleges location.

Enroll in Early College and you can:

• Save time and money on the cost of a college degree.
• Train for a high-demand career, helping you get a job right out of college.
• Access to the same great teachers and quality resources that other City Colleges students enjoy.
• Receive personalized advising help, allowing you to take charge of your education.
• Develop important time management and study skills that will serve you well in college and the workplace.
