Concurrent Enrollment Summer Academy
What is Concurrent Enrollment (CE) Summer Academy?
CE Summer Academy is an opportunity for high school students to take a concurrent enrollment class on a SLCC Campus during the summer. Priority is given to students who are the first person in their families to attend college. Students who participate in CE Summer Academy will also be given opportunities to mingle with other Summer Academy Students and will participate in activities to help them get to know the SLCC culture and student services. Students who successfully complete their classes will have college credit awarded on their SLCC college transcript.
Additionally, students who participate in CE Summer Academy are eligible for a free UTA pass to help them get from their home to the Taylorsville-Redwood Campus.
What are the Rules for Participation?
- Students from public high schools within the Salt Lake Valley are eligible to participate.
- Students must have completed their sophomore year in high school or be starting their senior year of high school at the end of the summer semester in which they participate in CE Summer Academy.
- Students must have a high school GPA of 3.0 or higher with a good attendance record.
- Priority is given to students who come from first-generation, college-going families and students who have completed fewer than 6 college credits.
- Students may only register for one class.
- Students must commit to attending class throughout the entire summer. This means that family vacations may need to be posponed until before or after the summer semester.
- For ENGL 1010 and MATH 1030 students must meet course prerequisites which include:
- ENGL 1010: Completion of High School Language Arts 11
- MATH 1030: Completion of Secondary Math 1, 2, and 3. And either a C or better in each Secondary Math course or qualifying SLCC Placement or ACT scores.
How much does it cost?
Students will pay the standard concurrent enrollment rate of $5/credit (about $15/class), plus any textbook and material fees, which are usually less than $100. If you were a regular adult student you would pay around $694 tuition for one class plus textbook and material fees, so this is an incredible deal.
