Start College Now
High school students in grades 11 through 12 can take classes at Wisconsin’s technical colleges through the Start College Now (SCN) program. Students may earn college and high school credit through the program.
Under SCN, the costs of the courses are shared among the IHE, the school district or private school, the state, and in some cases the student’s family.
The Board of Education will limit the credits for which the district will pay at institutions of higher education under the SCN program to 18 credits per student.
MASD Application Deadlines:
Fall Semester - Applications must be submitted by June 1
Spring Semester - Applications must be submitted by December 15
Applications to take courses already offered at Mukwonago High School will be not approved. If a pupil received a failing grade or fails to complete an SCN course, the student/family will be responsible for reimbursing the district. If the student/family fails to provide reimbursement for the dropped or failed courses(s) the student will no longer be eligible for participation in the Start College Now program.
Transportation is the responsibility of the parent/guardian and student. State reimbursement may be available through direct application by the parent/guardian or student to the Department of Public Instruction.
