How to Apply

Complete the Application for Early Enrollment. A separate application must be filed for each semester of enrollment.

Enrollment

The student enrolls part time at Goshen College while maintaining enrollment in high school. The total number of college courses a student takes must be equal to or fewer than the number of high school courses taken during the same period. Early Enrollment is only for fall or spring semesters. Current Goshen College students receive priority in class selection until two weeks before classes begin. You will be notified prior to registration as to the status of your enrollment.

Students need to be aware that the Goshen College academic calendar may not match their school calendar. Attendance is a critical component to the overall student evaluation, so students should plan on attending their Goshen College classes even when their high school is not in session.

Course Selection

A Goshen College enrollment counselor will provide course offering lists and assist in identifying the appropriate college courses. The high-school guidance counselor and student are expected to plan together to avoid any schedule conflicts. Some courses may require placement tests. Early enrollment students may select from 100- and 200-level courses. Course prerequisite documentation must be provided before registration is complete.

Registration

The college’s registrar will assist with registration verification and making your tuition payment.

Credit

Receive regular credit for the college courses taken. If you receive a grade of C or higher, the credit may be used toward any Goshen College degree program, or can be transferred to other colleges and universities.

Tuition

$180 per credit hour. For example, a three-hour course costs $540. No financial aid or other tuition discounts are available.
