1. The Adult High School (AHS) program is designed for students, seventeen years or older, who are in need of high school credit to graduate. This is a part-time rather than a full-time program therefore only 4 half-credit courses can be taken per term.  Students may have to attend multiple campuses during the week and on weekends in order for this to happen.

2. Two types of students attend the AHS. One type is no longer enrolled in school and only needs two credits or less to graduate. These students earn transfer credit and their former high school ultimately awards the diploma once all state requirements are satisfied. Students must verify their school will accept transfer credit before enrolling.

3. The other type student is enrolled in school full-time during the day and needs transfer credit for a remedial course or to makeup credit for courses lacking for graduation. These students must obtain approval from their high school counselor or school official before being allowed to enroll.

4. Students in need of more than two credits should consider a GED, rather than a high school diploma, because the time required and cost would be excessive.

5. A non-refundable tuition is charged for each half-credit course. Forms of payment are cash, check, or credit/debit card.

6. Registration may be completed online or in-person at the campus where classes are offered. Locations for AHS classes, dates and times for registration, semester calendar, and courses offered are contained in the AHS Flier. Fliers are available at high school counselor's offices and can be requested in email or fax form by calling (713) 718-7611.
