NHTI offers high school students a unique opportunity to take supplemental college courses while still in high school. These course credits can then be transferred to a 4-year institution or counted toward your associate degree at NHTI. In fact, some high school classes mirror courses that NHTI requires for our Liberal Arts associate degree. When these requirements overlap, there’s opportunity to optimize a student's high school course load to earn credits in NHTI’s Liberal Arts program – this decreases time, saves money, and offers students the freedom to explore options without an expensive 4-year college commitment.
Early College at Your High School
This is a concurrent enrollment partnership between participating high schools and NHTI for students in grades 10, 11, and 12. Students have the opportunity earn credit toward high school graduation while earning college credit at NHTI at the same time. Courses are taught by qualified high school faculty who have the same credentials as a CCSNH adjunct instructor and are taught during the regular school day. The teachers work with the NHTI faculty partners to align the curriculum to the NHTI requirements.
