UConn ECE Benefits
UConn Early College Experience (ECE) is an opportunity for students to take UConn courses while still in high school. Every UConn ECE course is equivalent to the same course at the University of Connecticut. There are approximately fifty courses in over twenty disciplines made available to partner high schools. Courses are taught on the high school campus by high school instructors who have been certified as adjunct faculty members by the University of Connecticut. UConn ECE students benefit by taking college courses in a familiar setting with an instructor they know. Courses offered through UConn ECE are approximately one-tenth of the cost in comparison to taking the same course on a UConn campus.
How Much Does an ECE Course Cost?
ECE classes are $50 per credit. Most courses are 3-4 credits each, totaling $150-$200. Some classes are comprised of two 3 credit courses, one per semester, totaling $300. Those with free/reduced lunch are eligible for waived program fees. Course fees can be paid online, by mail, or in person.
