For Students - SNHU in the High School

Get a jump start on college with SNHU in the High School.

There are plenty of reasons to consider Dual Credit/Dual Enrollment courses through SNHU in the High School. For example, you begin the process of accumulating early college credits, save time by taking classes while you're in high school that can be applied toward your college degree. Also, you will save a lot of money by taking the courses while in high school and gain experience as a college student, so you learn early what to expect from post-secondary courses. 

The courses are taught by your high teachers during the regular school day. The program allows eligible high school sophomores, juniors and seniors, to take SNHU courses to earn credit simultaneously toward both a high school diploma and a college degree. You fulfill your high school graduation requirements, and at the same time, earn college credits. While there is no guarantee, the college credits earned may be transferable to other colleges and universities as well. Universities have varying policies on accepting transfer credits and you will need to consult with any intended college/university to determine transferability.

You could earn credit toward both your high school diploma and a college degree at the same time!

SNHU in the High School is available at many local schools.

“The advantages to taking college courses in high school are definitely getting the feel for how some classes will run and getting a feel for material in college. Another advantage is not having to take that course in college. I like taking the classes in high school because it provides an opportunity to save thousands of dollars.”

“Students should consider enrolling in the SNHU Dual Enrollment program not only for the college credit, but for the message it sends to teachers, employers, and any postsecondary institution they might attend.  It suggests a level of maturity, ambition, and achievement beyond that of their peers.”

"I think it’s a good opportunity, getting two things done at once -- college credits and high school credits. It's definitely worth it. The price was great. It will help put me a step ahead."
