Early Enrollment Program
1
What is EEP?EEP is a program that offers you
the opportunity to apply for early
enrollment at JWU during your junior
year of high school. Then, at the
beginning of your senior year, you’ll
start attending classes at JWU —
earning credits for high school and
college courses while still participating
in your high school activities. You’ll also
be eligible to live in one of our residence
halls and still graduate from high school
at the same time as your peers.

Eager to start and complete college sooner so you can launch your career? Then the Early Enrollment Program (EEP) at Johnson & Wales can help you jumpstart your future plans.

“We were surprised when we heard
David was seriously considering
the Early Enrollment Program.
As parents, we were nervous and
concerned about him finishing
high school and starting college at
the same time. After talking to his
academic advisor, she eased our
fears. His high school credits were
completed after the second term,
and he made the dean’s list! He
had a successful first year and was
involved with many organizations.
We cannot wait to see what the
future holds for him at JWU!”
— Jason and Laura Allen,parents of David Allen

“JWU worked closely with us and
our high school to get everything
in place: transcripts, graduation
requirements and more. JWU
actually cut tuition in half for
Michelle’s first year ... and
continued to work closely with her
during that year to make sure she
remained on track. We never had to
worry that she was in good hands.
Michelle graduated with a National
Honor Society diploma and was on
the dean’s list at JWU. As a parent,
to see the growth in my daughter in
one year was incredible.”
— Ann AliquoMother of Michelle Aliquo

ARE YOU READY? You may be a good candidate for EEP if
• you’re a high school junior (Application period begins in late fall your junior year. JWU will need mid-year grades to render a decision on your early enrollment.)
• you want to get a head start on college
• you’re looking for direction, stimulation and a challenge beyond what is offered in high school
WHAT ARE THE ACADEMIC QUALIFICATIONS FOR EEP?To be considered for EEP, you need
to have
• a minimum 2.75 GPA (B-) and a B- in English
• a minimal number of high school classes left to complete to meet graduation requirements. (For example, you might have one English class and one or two other classes to take in order to graduate.)
Requirements and equivalent JWU
courses will be determined by your high
school counselor and JWU.
“Briana’s acceptance and
participation in JWU’s EEP was
the most beneficial and exciting
event to happen in Briana’s
academic career. Leaving the
proverbial nest at a tender age
of 17 was a little nerve-racking
from a parent’s point of view.
However, because of JWU’s
superb program, I watched Briana
develop from a young girl to an
independent, smart young adult!
Thank you, JWU!”
— Frank VallettaFather of Briana Valletta
