overview of shared cost for self-pay pathway
In the Rising Phoenix Self-Pay Pathway, participation costs are shared between the school district and the student's family. Under Wisconsin's Early College Credit Program (ECCP), the school district covers the cost of the state-legislated 18 ECCP credits, including associated course materials. Families are responsible for the remaining program costs. UW–Green Bay invoices the school district for all Rising Phoenix program-related costs. The school district then invoices families for any applicable student costs. Individual school districts may also require families to sign a separate cost agreement after admission to the Rising Phoenix Program.
Students in the Rising Phoenix Program work toward the Associate of Arts and Sciences (AAS) degree, which requires 60 total college credits. As part of the program, students must complete a minimum of 39 credits through UW–Green Bay at the reduced Rising Phoenix tuition rate. The remaining credits may be earned through other approved college credit opportunities.
