How much do the courses cost?
For only $150, plus the cost of textbook(s), you will be able to take
an actual college course for credit towards a future college degree. Compare
this to the cost of a regular undergraduate college course, and you can
see that it pays to take courses while you're still in high school!
Do I earn credits for the
courses?
Each student who participates in the distance learning through College
Discovery Program will be awarded three college credits for the successful
completion of each course. Students can take up to 12 credits under the
College Discovery Program. Credits received by the student under this
program are applied to the graduation requirements, should the student
elect to enter in a degree program at King's College. These credits may
also be accepted in transfer by other institutions.
How do I apply?
Interested students should contact their high school
guidance counselor to learn more about the course in which they are interested.
Guidance counselors should then contact Bill Keating, Managing Director
of Academic Technology at King's, to check on course availability. Program
application forms will be mailed to interested school district representatives.
