Missouri Community College/Four-year University Co-enrollment Programs

These programs offer students the opportunity to save on their tuition costs by using A+ to earn community college credits for the first two years, while also having a four-year college experience starting in their first year.

A+ only covers the community college tuition and fees.

All other costs at the 4-year university, including tuition and fees, dorms, meals, etc. is the responsibility of the student to pay out of pocket or through other financial aid.
