I'm a high school student. How can I take JBU courses in high school?

Path 1: I attend a partner high school

Is my school a partner?

I'm a school administrator. How can I make JBU courses available to our students?

We provide the framework so you can offer Christ-centered college credit without building a new program from scratch.

We equip your school by providing our curriculum and assessments to your teachers, allowing them to facilitate JBU courses on your campus. Alternatively, students can plug directly into our online or in-person courses.

We handle the administrative heavy lifting and faculty oversight, making it a zero-cost addition to your school's offerings.

For questions about the concurrent program, please connect with the director of academic partnerships.
