College Credit Opportunities
in High School

Early College Credit (4 year colleges) and Start College Now (technical colleges) programs allow Wisconsin public high school students to take courses at an institution of higher education for high school and/or college credit. Both programs have rules, regulations and deadlines. Be sure to allow yourself enough time so you can meet the deadline to apply.


Dates for students to submit applications are strictly adhered to:

Summer Semester - February 1 (ECCP only)

Fall Semester - March 1

Spring Semester - October 1


Not all courses that students can enroll in will qualify for high school credit.  It is important to know that admission to courses may be limited because of program requirements, prerequisites and/or space availability.


Students interested in applying for either of these programs should set up an appointment to speak with their guidance counselor.
