Start College Now is a dual credit program designed to introduce high school students to the exciting world of higher education. In addition to getting a first-hand view of the college experience, enrolled students will earn both high school and college credit at the same time.
Actively enrolled public high school juniors and seniors are eligible to take classes during the Fall and Spring Semesters. Credits earned can be applied toward a degree at Gateway Technical College or many other Wisconsin colleges.
Tuition and book costs for the program are paid by the high school. Some Gateway courses have additional expenses outside of tuition and fees that would be the responsibility of the student.
