Frequently Asked Questions

If I earn college credit through the SUNY Oswego in the High School Program and would like to attend SUNY Oswego after I graduate do I still need to go through the application process?

Yes, earning credit through the SUNY Oswego in the High School Program does not mean you will automatically be admitted as a full-time, undergraduate student.  For more information about applying to SUNY Oswego please visit our admissions page.

How do I know if my high school offers a SUNY Oswego in the High Schools Course?

SUNY Oswego has established many partnerships with high schools across New York State.  You can ask your guidance counselor if your high school offers SUNY Oswego Courses.   It is important to note that not all high schools partner with us. 

What happens if I don't pay for the course on time?

SUNY Oswego expects payment to be made by the program deadlines.  Students  with unpaid accounts will be deregistered and will not receive SUNY Oswego credit, only high school credit.

How do I drop a course?

You will need to complete the SUNY Oswego in the High School Course Drop Form and return it to the High School Programs Coordinator.
