Seattle Colleges is an institution of higher education, not a high school. However, we have some great opportunities for students who have not yet completed a high school education. Through our High School Completion Plus program, you can skip one or two years of high school and start your university studies right away. You can take full-time, dual credit classes at Seattle Colleges and earn college credits while completing requirements for a Washington state high school diploma at the same time. By choosing this option, you will earn both your high school diploma and associate transfer degree in two years. Like University Transfer students, you may need to take English and math placement tests before starting classes, and you will complete the normal associate transfer degree requirements. You will take college courses, not high school ones, which are generally transferable to a university and can count toward a bachelor's degree.
