Running Start
The Running Start program allows high school juniors and seniors to earn college credits while completing their high school education - saving students money while advancing their education. Students are able to attend college, at minimal cost, while still living at home as a high school student.
Students are able to select courses that challenge them academically and provide real-world applications. Many students earn their associate’s degree and leave prepared to start a career or transfer to a four-year institution to pursue their bachelor’s degree.
To qualify for Running Start:
You must be a Junior or Senior.
You must be currently enrolled in a Washington State public high school.
Be organized, and prepared to take college level courses.
