Nebraska College of Technical Agriculture

Concurrent Enrollment Program

 

The Concurrent Enrollment Program has been established for juniors and seniors in high school to obtain a duel credit college course at a reduced rate and in many cases will transfer into other institutions. The tuition currently for in-state and out-of-state residence is $43.75 per credit hour for high school students. The students should hold a 3.0 GPA; if the student is below the GPA we will need the counselor’s approval to take the course.

Many of these courses are also offered to current and future students that are not enrolled in high school through the on-line format. The credit hour fee will be based on the regular credit hourly tuition rate for non-high school participants.

All courses are offered through the online Blackboard Course Management System. The courses contain lectures with voice-overs, laboratory assignments, homework assignments, online quizzes and tests.

The Access College Early Scholarship (ACE) is also available for Nebraska high school students taking the concurrent enrollment courses. To qualify for this scholarship the parents/student has experienced hardship as indicated on the application or qualifies for the federal benefit program.

For more information about the courses offered please call the NCTA Admissions Office.
