Dual Enrollment/High School Connections

High School Connections is a program ran in conjunction with MSU-Billings where students are given the opportunity to earn high school and college credit simultaneously. Classes are taught in the Billings West building, by Billings West teachers, and college credit is issued through MSU-Billings. Credits earned are fully transferable within the Montana University System and transfer widely to other accredited colleges and universities. Check with the institution you would like to attend to verify acceptance of your credits. 

Tuition for these classes has been waived for the 18-19 school year so this is a great opportunity to save some money!
