Academy College Credit Courses for High School Students
Academy College Credit Courses at NJIT are designed for high-achieving 11th and 12th graders who are interested in earning college credits while still in high school.
If you have questions regarding our Academy Programs please email academy@chicksthatlift.net or call 973-596-3550.
Participants earn NJIT college credits in small, customized classes taught by faculty who have been recognized for their commitment to teaching excellence. Classes meet on Saturdays during the Fall and Spring semesters, and Monday through Thursday during the Summer semester session. At the end of the program, grades are recorded on an NJIT transcript which, upon your request to the Registrar, will be sent to the university or universities of your choice. Course credits can be applied toward an undergraduate degree at NJIT and most other colleges and universities (varies by institution).
