Academic Credit

During your course you will conduct research and carry out service-learning projects, all of which are worth academic credit at your school.

Before your course, we’ll work with your teachers and administrators to figure out the best way for you to get credit through your school based on the length of your course and the projects you’ll complete.

If you are a high schooler interested in getting college credit for your course, ask your teacher to contact our office. We’ll work together to create a plan for you and your classmates to participate in one of our courses AND earn college credit at the same time. Call our office today for more details.
