New England Institute of Technology (NEIT) is now offering students in Rhode Island public high schools two dual enrollment options to earn credit toward a degree at its technical career university.NEIT was among the first colleges and universities to participate in the state’s Advanced Coursework Network, launched in 2016. If you’re enrolled in a school participating in the Advanced Coursework Network, you are able to take advanced-level, credit-bearing courses at NEIT at no cost to yourself or your family.
Check out the courses that MAY be offered to high school students through the Advanced Coursework Network in October of 2017.
The credits earned will then be applied to your college degree at NEIT. You can REGISTER HERE for Advanced Coursework Network to get a jumpstart on your career at New England Tech.
A second way you can earn credits toward a NEIT degree is if you are a Providence Public School junior. New England Tech is offering conditional early acceptance, allowing you to earn credits toward your NEIT degree while still in high school. The program is open to all juniors enrolled in Providence public schools who have at least a B average at the end of their junior year and, through school attendance and behavior, have proven the maturity necessary for college success. You must also meet NEIT’s admission procedures for the programs to which you are applying. If you do, NEIT will waive all application fees. In this program, you can take up to two courses per quarter, with a maximum of four courses per calendar year. These courses are free and allow you to earn credits for high school and college simultaneously.
Providence Supt. Christopher Maher said, “By offering and honoring dual enrollment courses for our students, New England Tech is allowing students to reduce the courses they need to graduate from college, thereby reducing their total tuition costs. For some of our students, this collaboration between Providence Public Schools and New England Tech puts the college dream within reach.”
