Get a Head Start on College!

Manchester University offers opportunities for high school students to earn real college credits through the Manchester Early College Experience.

Manchester Early College Experience is a different experience than your typical dual degree or college credit courses offered in many high schools. Students will attend classes on MU's North Manchester campus or online alongside current students taught by Manchester faculty. Students have access to University facilities and services, Funderburg Library, the Success Center, success advising, the Office of the Registrar, and the Office of Admissions.

As a part of this program, students will have a reduced tuition cost, providing the opportunity for students to earn college credits before high school graduation. In addition, meeting and working with other students and University professors will allow students to get a sample of actual college life on our North Manchester campus!

"What I like about being on the Manchester University campus is the food and the availability to work on assignments. I can always find a good place to eat and study when I need and it's beyond helpful on the days when I have a lot to get done. While being on campus, I learned that college isn't as scary as it seemed at first. It is beyond welcoming. I feel accepted at Manchester University."
