LDHS has partnered with HACC and Harrisburg University (HU) to offer college credits at a reduced fee to our students in our building. Classes that are offered as both high school credit and college credit are marked with HACC or HU designation within their descriptions and are listed below. Students must pay for the course if they wish to earn college credit (HACC College in the High School is $75 per credit and HU is $100 per credit).
HACC also allows our students to take classes on campus (and virtually). At the time of this publication, the cost is approximately $130 per credit. Students apply for admissions, take placement testing and then register for classes with the help of an advisor. See HACC's website for details and contacts:

Speak with your counselor if you have additional questions about getting a jump start on college level credits/course work. It is important to line up high school requirements with college courses to be sure students are on the path to graduation if they have an interest in using the course work to do so.
