Applying to the Learning Excellence Program
Students are enrolled in the Learning Excellence Program on a first-come, first-served, semester by semester basis. Incoming freshmen must be admitted to the university prior to enrolling in the Learning Excellence Program.
Learning Excellence is designed to support students who want to improve their academic skills while learning how to use High Point University services and support programs. The success of students participating in Learning Excellence is dependent upon their personal involvement, cooperation, and dedication to academic progress and success, as well as the support of their parents. Students and parents are required to complete and sign the Learning Excellence Application indicating their commitment to the program.
Every application will be reviewed, and notification of acceptance will be given prior to the start of the semester of program enrollment.
Once accepted into the Learning Excellence Program, a family meeting will be recommended to review expectations and goals. For incoming freshmen, this will occur during Move-In Day of Summer Advantage and/or Move-In Weekend for the Fall semester.
Program Enrollment
The program is open to any High Point University student with a desire to cultivate and improve their academic abilities. Incoming freshmen should be enrolled in the university before submitting an application to the Learning Excellence Program. The Learning Excellence Program cost for the 2021-2022 academic year is $8,000 per semester. Because there is limited enrollment and high demand, a $500 non-refundable deposit is required to secure your student’s spot. There is no obligation to continue the following semester. This program has a limit as to how many students it can serve each semester, and spots are filled on a first-come first-served basis.
