Early College Credit
Early College Dual Credit
The Early College Dual Credit Program is an opportunity for high school students to take college courses to fulfill their high school graduation requirements. The most unique feature of this program is that the student will receive dual credit which means the course and grade will appear on their high school transcript and as well as their college transcript. Courses are taught by UH instructors in-person or online.
- Take college courses with your high school classmates
- Free or discounted tuition
- Earn dual credit for high school and college
Program eligibility determined by student’s high school. Please contact your high school counselor.
Step 1: Meet with your High School counselor
- Discuss which dual credit program is the best fit for you to understand the benefits and potential impacts related to your high school graduation requirements. (As a reminder, the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa does not participate in the Running Start program.)
- Determine which classes to take. (This may be a collaborative conversation with the Running Start or Early College contact/counselor at the UH campus you’d like to attend.)
- Ask your counselor about the deadline(s) at the UH campus you wish to attend.
- Discuss and complete placement requirements for the class. (This may also be a collaborative conversation with the Running Start or Early College contact/counselor at the UH campus you’d like to attend.)
Step 2: Work with your counselor on required forms
- Complete the UH System Kama’aina Application form.
- Complete the online Dual Credit Application form; specify selected classes and authorize UH to forward your grades to the high school registrar upon completion of the class.
- When you click the “Submit Application” button on the Dual Credit Application and the print screen appears, this is confirmation that your application has been submitted completely and received by the dual credit website.
- Print or save the Dual Credit Application as a PDF and obtain all the required signatures. Work with your high school counselor and UH Running Start or Early College contact/counselor to submit the Dual Credit Application and any other required documents to the UH campus by their application deadline.
- If a blank screen appears when you click on the “Submit Application” button on the Dual Credit Application, that means your application was not submitted and received by the dual credit website, and you will need to submit a new Dual Credit Application form. Do not include diacritical markings (ʻokina, kahakō, apostrophes, etc.) on your application; we have noticed that diacritical markings often cause submission issues.
Step 3: Be on the lookout for your notification letter in the mail or via email.
- Follow up with the Admissions Office at the UH campus you applied to if you do not receive a letter or email or if you have any questions about the letter/email.
- Work with the Running Start or Early College contact/counselor at the relevant UH campus to complete any additional steps related to your enrollment at the UH campus and registration in your selected class(es).
