HSUP Dual Enrollment students are ordinarily restricted to enrollment in lower-division (i.e., 1000- or 2000-level) courses.

Registration for any course above that level must be pre-approved by the appropriate University entity (i.e., the department or other course-offering unit responsible for the course).

If you are a homeschooled student interested in the High School University Program, please contact the program coordinator directly at hsup@utah.edu.

HSUP students must maintain a 2.0 or higher cumulative University of Utah GPA.

If a student’s University of Utah cumulative GPA falls below a 2.0 in HSUP courses, they will be dismissed from the program.

HSUP students are required to reapply for each semester they wish to participate in the program.

See “Information and Deadlines” for more information.

The High School University Program is not the same thing as early acceptance to the U.

HSUP is a dual enrollment program offered by the University for high school sophomores through seniors who want to take advanced courses not available in their high school.

If you are interested in early admissions to the U, learn more about the application process and deadlines on the early admissions page.

Please note: Students who wish to attend the U as a freshman will need to complete the standard admissions application.

Current HSUP students who wish to continue with the program are required to complete the returning student form and are required to submit official transcripts with their application.

The $55 application fee is not required.

Admitted HSUP students should watch the HSUP New Student Orientation video and review the HSUP Handbook.

HSUP students receive a discounted tuition rate of $5 for each credit hour in which they enroll in.

Please refer to the 2022-23 HSUP tuition rate schedule below, which is an estimate only and may change due to specific class fees. HSUP students are still subject to class fees, which can be found in the Class Fee section when signing up for classes, and department fees.

It is important to note that HSUP students are not subject to mandatory fees, which means they do not have access to the Student Life Center, campus recreation (e.g., intramural sports, sports clubs, Outdoor Adventure Center), public transit (e.g., UTA Trax, Bus and Frontrunner), university sponsored student activities, athletic events (i.e., student tickets) and some library privileges.

Tuition is paid online and is due approximately one week after classes start.

HSUP students who qualify for the University of Utah staff tuition reduction must complete the application process in order for the tuition discount to be applied to their HSUP tuition.

Financial assistance via financial aid, grants, and/or scholarships are not available to HSUP students.

HSUP students are classified as non-matriculated (non-degree seeking) students.

All policies and procedures that exist for matriculated University of Utah students apply to HSUP students as well.

Participating in HSUP does not guarantee freshman admissions to the University of Utah following high school.

Students interested in attending the U as a freshman will need to complete the standard university application for freshman admissions.

HSUP students can register for courses during open enrollment periods, which are listed in the academic calendar.

HSUP students are expected to complete new student orientation, prior to registering for courses during the open enrollment periods.

Students within HSUP are generating an official university transcript, which will become a part of their permanent academic record.
