Earn up to 3 College Credits
The National Student Leadership Conference has a unique partnership with American University to offer college credits for our high school summer programs. The American University is distinguished as a premier global university and known for turning “ideas into action and action into service.” As a result of this NSLC/AU alliance, students attending the NSLC’s high school summer programs have the opportunity to earn college credit from American University. This credit option enhances your education within the framework of your program experience, without interrupting NSLC activities.
The AU college credit courses are designed to relate to your NSLC program, allowing you to pursue areas of interest from a variety of disciplines, including government, international studies, business, communication, and the sciences. Taught by AU faculty, students explore relevant and engaging topics in an innovative, encouraging, and personalized learning environment.
AU credit is transferable to most accredited colleges and universities. In recognition of the scholastic aptitude and leadership merit of students selected for the NSLC, this credit is offered at a reduced tuition rate of $695 for one credit, $1390 for two credits and $2085 for three credits. Detailed College Credit information will be provided upon your acceptance to the NSLC.
