Early Entry Program

The CSC High School Early Entry Program is extended to high school juniors and seniors contingent upon the permission of parent/guardian, recommendation from a high school official, and ONE of the following:

  • 3.0 on a 4.0 scale or 90% cumulative GPA in high school OR
  • ACT composite score of at least 20 or equivalent OR
  • ACT sub-score of 20 in the area related to the course OR
  • Rank in upper 1/3 of high school class

Early Entry students are limited to a maximum of six credit hours per semester and a total accumulation of 16 credit hours during high school. College credit is granted upon verification of a high school diploma, and Chadron State College accepts these credits into programs of study. If you do not plan to complete your degree at CSC, you should check in advance with the institution of your choice to verify acceptance of CSC Early Entry credits. You will be enrolling for Section 79 in which the course content is all online and our flat rate applies.

Here's how it works:

  1. Please complete the non-degree seeking admission application form at the Section 1 of the recommendation/permission form including the details about the class in which you intend to enroll.
  2. Ask your high school official to complete Section 2.
  3. Ask your parent/guardian to complete Section 3.
  4. Return both forms to Chadron State College ECP Office, 1000 Main St, Chadron, NE 69337 before the term in which you wish to enroll. The last day to add a class for fall/spring semesters is the Friday of the first week of class.
  5. Check with the bookstore to see if/which text is required for your course. Reserve your book(s) online at www.eaglepridebookstore.com. Keep your receipt in case you need to make an exchange.
  6. Make payment for your course(s). Attend class. Good luck and thank you for enrolling. Please contact alangford@csc.edu for more information.

Financial Resources for Nebraska High School Students

For example, a letter from the state WIC office certifying eligibility for the program, a letter from a high school administrator or counselor certifying eligibility for the free or reduced lunch program, etc. Please note: Social Security SSI benefits are not Survivor’s Benefits…they are two different programs.
