Next Generation Scholars

Students at partner schools can apply to take courses through the Commonwealth's flagship university, designed and taught by world-class UK faculty largely in collaboration with teachers at their school. This partnership approach has driven strong outcomes for students in the program.

All dual credit courses carry a reduced tuition rate, and partner-school students may also qualify for scholarships covering a limited number of courses. Learn more on the Kentucky Dual Credit Scholarship page from KHEAA.

Partner schools belong to the Next Generation Scholars Dual Credit Network, connecting them to the Center for Next Generation Leadership in the UK College of Education, a partner to Kentucky's public schools for more than a decade.

Students outside the network may still be admitted to UK while completing their high school diploma and, if they meet course prerequisites, enroll in on-campus courses at full tuition. This option does not qualify for the Kentucky Dual Credit Scholarship. Learn more at UK Undergraduate Admissions.
