Get started with college today!
High school students who enroll in the program will:
Take college courses while still in high school
Courses are taught at the high schools by qualified high school teachers, allowing students to earn high school and college credit simultaneously.
Earn transferable college credit
For each course a student successfully completes, they will earn college credit from KU. Most courses are transferable to Kansas public 2-year and 4-year institutions of higher education and may transfer to other colleges, depending on transfer requirements.
Experience college-level coursework and learning
Jayhawk Blueprint courses are taught similarly to how they are taught on campus, giving high school students experience with college-level courses and helping ease the future transition to college.
Access KU courses at a discounted rate
Jayhawk Blueprint students benefit from a reduced tuition rate, set at one-third of KU's current undergraduate tuition. Course textbooks/materials are provided at no charge to students. Additionally, need-based funding is available for students in USD 497 who qualify for free or reduced meals through their high school.
