Idaho High School Students
Advanced Opportunities (AO) program provides $75/credit per course (e.g., $225 for a 3-credit course) to qualified Idaho high school students to offset a portion of the cost of ISI courses. The AO program does not pay the full cost of an ISI course. Credits earned for AO dual credit courses are recorded on the student's high school and college transcripts. Meet with your high school counselor to develop a personalized learning plan and review AO registration dates before registering. See the Idaho State Department of Education Advanced Opportunities for program information.
