  How do I know which course to register for?

Please reach out to your guidance counselor or high school teacher to find out which one of our Molloy University courses (course codes) match the course you are taking at the high school. For example, something that may be called Italian 5 at your high school may translate to ITA 1010 at Molloy.

How does the High School Scholars Program compare to the AP Program?

The High School Scholars Program at Molloy University awards credits based on the grade you earn for the work you accomplish during your course. Credits earned through the AP Program are dependent on the score achieved on a single examination.

What happens if I miss the late registration period?

No registrations will be accepted after the deadline. Students who miss posted deadlines will not be eligible for college credits.

Can I drop a course and get a refund?

No, High School Scholars Program courses are not eligible for refunds.

   Is there financial aid available?

The High School Scholars Program tuition is already greatly discounted from on-campus rates. Therefore, no other financial aid is available through Molloy University for participating students.

   How can I find out my grade in a course?

Reach out to your high school guidance counselor or teacher to find out the grade you received in the course and use our conversion chart listed below.

Will my High School Scholars Program grades affect my GPA at the college I eventually attend?

Most institutions do not factor course grades for transfer credit into a student’s GPA. However, the grade you earn in your course is part of your permanent record at Molloy University and will count toward your GPA if you attend Molloy University. If you are concerned about your grades earned in the High School Scholars Program, you should contact the Admissions Office at the college/university you plan to attend for more information.

We highly recommend that students directly contact colleges for information on transfer credit policies.
