H+ Program
Taking College Classes with Butler
Students at participating high schools can take classes for college credit at Butler. With the H+ program you have a couple different options:
- You can take classes offered at your high school. These may be taught by your high school teachers or Butler faculty
- You can take classes at one of our many Butler campuses, including online offerings
If you are interested in getting a degree with Butler, please also explore our H+B+U and Early College Academy programs.
H+ At Your High School
These courses work well for students who want to take a few general education courses prior to going to college. High schools offer different courses, but typically they are English Composition, Speech, College Algebra, and History. These work well for busy students, as they fit the high school schedule and the student does not typically need to travel to a Butler location for the course. Usually students with college aspirations take these courses, as they are highly transferable and meet the requirements of most college degrees.
H+ at Butler
If a student wants to take a more specialized course that the high school does not offer, they may take it at one of our Butler locations. The high school will need to approve it for dual credit, but in these situations, students can take a much wider array of courses, essentially picking from our entire catalog. In certain situations, the student will need to meet pre-requisites for entrance into the course. Further, in most situations, students take these courses during evenings or hours when they have release from their high school, working around their high school schedules and demands. The benefit is the wider option of courses for students who want to go beyond the general education classes but who do not want to participate in the Early College Academy.
