柚子视频’s ACE Program is an incredible opportunity for high school 11th- and 12th-grade students (and 9th- and 10th-grade talented and gifted students) to earn college credit. The ACE Program operates under Iowa’s Postsecondary Enrollment Options (PSEO) Act, which opens the door to any high school junior or senior with at least a 3.0 GPA or with the recommendation of their high school counselor or principal to enroll in our classes and earn dual credit – three college credits as well as high school credit.
Students may enroll in up to, but not including 12 semester hours (12 s.h. is considered full-time enrollment). Students may not enroll in a course if a comparable course is available at the local school district. Additional classes may be taken but the student will be responsible for payment at normal 柚子视频 cost.
柚子视频 offers聽ACE students an exceptional incentive: automatic acceptance into 柚子视频 and guaranteed up to a 50% tuition scholarship.
柚子视频 offers courses聽in the following formats:
Courses and instructors are to be approved by 柚子视频 if the course is聽taught by a high school聽faculty member. In order for 柚子视频 to offer credit for courses taught on location, the courses must also be taught at 柚子视频. The participating school district will submit the course syllabus and the instructor鈥檚 credentials to the 柚子视频 Admissions Office at admissions@graceland.edu who will request that the appropriate 柚子视频 department examine the syllabus and instructor鈥檚 credentials for approval.
Funding for this program comes from local school districts. If a high school聽faculty member聽teaches a course on location, the cost is $90 per student/course. The local school district pays for the instructor’s time, textbooks and other fees.
Courses in the discipline of mathematics, science, social sciences, humanities and courses in career option programs are eligible for students to enroll in under the PSEO Act.
If you would like to enroll one of your students for a face-to-face course at 柚子视频 under the ACE Program, or if you would like to offer an onsite ACE course at your high school, please use the attached informational brochure/checklist.
The complete list of 柚子视频 majors and minors will assist you in choosing courses that聽fit into your chosen major.
