WVU Tech offers college courses to high school students through the Early Enrollment program. Qualified students can earn dual credit (college credit and high school credit) for courses completed through the program. Early Enrollment courses meet the same standards as any other WVU Tech course and are offered online at a reduced cost.

Early Enrollment courses at WVU Tech are generally available for junior and senior high school students with a minimum 3.0 GPA. Early Enrollment students should also have the maturity and discipline to work independently to complete a college course.
Tuition rates are $25 per credit hour for in-state students and $75 per credit hour for out-of-state students. For students participating in Level Up, the tuition cost is completely covered. The only expense students have is textbooks when needed.

How many classes may I take?
Early Enrollment courses are typically 3-4 credit hours each. We usually recommend
a maximum of 2 classes per semester. If your high school counselor approves,
you may be eligible to enroll in more. Please be sure you understand tuition
charges.
Do I need to submit test scores?
Currently, specific test scores are required for enrolling in MATH 124 and
MATH 126. Students may submit ACT or SAT scores to W VU Tech or may opt to
use our campus-based ALEKS testing. Some other classes may require completion
of prerequisite coursework (ENGL 102 & MATH 128). See Early Enrollment
course listing for details.
Is this a “real” college course?
Early Enrollment courses meet the same rigorous standards as any WVU Tech
course. These courses use the same syllabi, textbooks, outcomes and objectives
as other WVU Tech courses. Early Enrollment courses become part of your academic
history and will be included on your official WVU Tech transcript.
Does the credit transfer?
Normally, yes. However, the transfer of college credit is always at the discretion
of the receiving school.
How much does it cost?
Tuition for Early Enrollment courses for 2024-2025 is estimated at $25 per
credit hour for in-state students and $75 per credit hour for non-resident
students. Payment is due in full upon registration. Early enrollment students
cannot apply for financial aid.
Can I drop a course?
Communication with your instructor is very important! Be sure to contact your
instructor if you are having difficulties. If you need to withdraw from the
course, please note that Early Enrollment student must follow the WVU Tech
academic calendar . If you drop a course within the first week of class, you
may be eligible for a refund if you've already paid, and the course will not
appear on your transcript. A withdrawal after the first week of classes will
result in a grade of W and tuition may still be due. All schedule changes,
including adds/drops/withdrawals of courses MUST be completed by the WVU Tech
Early Enrollment Office. A request from the student, the parent/legal guardian,
or the designated high school official is required. Our online form should
be used.
