Early College at Vincennes University

Vincennes University is the statewide leader in Early College partnerships.  VU's Early College Program is designed for students who want to get a jump start on their college education while still attending high school by offering various pathways which allow students to earn both a high school diploma and an Associate's Degree or Indiana College Core Certificate. Transcripted college credits are available to eligible high school students who enroll in Vincennes University courses offered at approved Indiana partner high schools or career centers. 

Benefits of Early College
