Earn transferable university credits before graduating from high school!

Corpus Christi College offers the Running Start Program, a concurrent university course enrollment program that enables high school students to take university-level courses while still attending high school.

The program is designed to provide post-secondary opportunities for high school students looking for new challenges through enrichment or accelerated programming.

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS

•     Opportunity to do advanced coursework and get a head start on post-secondary studies (“running start”)
•     Receive university credit prior to high school graduation
