A True College Experience
Concurrent Enrollment allows high school students to earn both college and high school credit for college-level courses offered at their high school.
Concurrent Enrollment instructors use Boise State curriculum, texts and grading scales. The Concurrent Enrollment Program provide textbooks, lab supplies, and equipment to high school classrooms to make sure that university curriculum aligns with high school courses. This academic support creates a true university educational experience.
Benefits
- Students who take concurrent enrollment courses gain access to university courses, build confidence in their ability to do university course work, and gain an early start on a college career.
- Students become part of Boise State’s student body and have access to many campus resources.
- Students work toward a letter grade which is recorded on a Boise State transcript. Credits transfer to most accredited colleges and universities in the United States.
