Saint Joseph's merit scholarship for qualifying graduates
College credit,
earned here
Through partnerships with three colleges, Holy Cross students can earn college credit while they are still in high school, in small classes with teachers who know them.
Courses cost between $175 to $500, far less than the same credits cost in college. Credits earned here can mean fewer courses to pay for later or room for a second major or semester abroad.
How credits transfer depends on the college and major each student chooses. We help every student plan the courses that fit their goals.
A guaranteed next step
