If you are a high school student with at least a 3.0 GPA, you can apply from the spring of the sophomore year to the fall of the senior year. Once admitted to UA Early College, you will remain eligible to take courses through the summer after high school graduation. Through UA Early College, you can potentially earn up to 30 hours of college credits through online, distance courses - that's like finishing your first year of college before you even go off to college - and you would still be eligible for UA freshman scholarships. The credit is also good to go - UA Early College credits are accepted at all public colleges and universities in Alabama, and are accepted broadly at private and out-of-state institutions as well.
