Early College Entrance Requirements

Am I eligible for Early College?

You must be a junior or senior in high school (or the equivalent if home schooled)
You must have an index number of 100 (calculated from your composite ACT and cumulative GPA. Example, 3.0 GPA and 23 ACT = 100 index)

What if I'm not a Junior or Senior or my ACT isn't high enough?

If you are sophomore (10th grade) or your index score isn't high enough, you can still possibly take courses at Weber State University. High School Freshmen cannot participate in Early College. You will need to apply to be admitted to Early College as an Explorer Status student. Read more.

What if my ACT isn't high enough?

If your index score isn't high enough, you can still possibly take courses at Weber State University. You will need to apply to be admitted to Early College as an Explorer Status student. Read more.

What if I don’t have a GPA?

If you are a home school student and do not have a high school GPA or GPA equivalent, we will still allow you to apply for Early College. You will need to submit a transcript listing the equivalent of courses you have completed through your studies with an assigned grade for each course and an overall grade point average. Your submitted overall grade point average will be used to determine your index score.

What if I haven’t taken the ACT exam?

All students must take the ACT exam to be admitted to the Early College program. If you haven’t yet taken the ACT exam, consider registering for the WSU Residual ACT exam. You also have the option of taking the SAT exam. Either score will be accepted.

Does WSU Early College accept home-schooled students?

Yes. We’ll be happy to work with you. Simply fill out the Early College application and send it to us with your ACT scores. We will also need a transcript of sorts listing the courses or course equivalent of what you have completed through your home schooling with an assigned grade for each course and an overall grade point average (GPA). Your submitted overall grade point average will be used to determine your index score.
 

What is the ACCUPLACER test?

Every student must complete certain English and math core requirements at Weber State University. Placement in the appropriate classes can be critical to a student’s success. The ACCUPLACER English and math placement exams offer students the opportunity to be placed in math and English courses that may better match their level of ability.
