The Youth Options Program allows qualified students to earn college credits while still in high school. Admission to the program is subject to course, program, and institutional enrollment limits as authorized by the UW Board of Regents.

Youth Options students, like other non-degree special students, may be limited in the number of courses they may take in a semester. Please review the criteria and procedures below to determine if the Youth Options Program will be a good fit for you.

Criteria for Enrollment in the Youth Options Program:
  • Be enrolled in a high school as an 11th or 12th grade student.

  • Be approved to participate in the program by your high school.

  • Be approved for enrollment by the Office of Admissions. Admission will be based on cumulative grade point average, courses taken during high school, ACT scores, letters of recommendation, and/or the UWGB course(s) desired. Admissions decisions will be highly individualized. Priority admission to the program will go to students who have a cumulative grade point average of 3.40 or above (on a 4.0 scale).

  • Meet requirements for selected courses, such as having the prerequisites or a certain placement score. If prerequisites are not met, students may either contact the professor(s) to see if they would be willing to waive prerequisites -OR- select alternative courses (with approval on the DPI form). Course information, such as the days/times of classes and prerequisites can be found on the schedule of classes at http://sis.uwgb.edu/schedule/.

If you feel that you qualify for the Youth Options Program and would benefit from this opportunity, please complete the required application forms in order to apply for admission to the program.

If you have specific questions, please contact an Admissions Advisor at (920) 465-2111 or via email at uwgb@uwgb.edu.
