SHAPA currently partners with Portland Community College, Chemeketa Community College, Clackamas Community College, Lane Community College, and Oregon Institute of Technology.

If you want to enroll in SHAPA’s Early College program, but the college you’d like to attend isn’t listed in our current partners, reach out to our School Counselor, Kale Budgeon. We’re always happy to start new partnerships or find a program that works for you.

Every Early College students’ schedule looks different, because each schedule is personalized to fit the student’s current needs and future college and career goals. Full-time enrollment, part-time enrollment, in-person classes, online classes, courses with meeting times, or courses with no meeting times; it all depends! Talk to Kale Budgeon, our School Counselor, about what Early College could look like for you.

Absolutely! Some Early College students prefer to take their college classes from the comfort of their own home. Most colleges have robust online offerings, though some classes, like lab sciences or career and technical education courses, are only offered in-person by some colleges.

SHAPA pays for 12 college credits per term, but many of our students choose to take more than those 12 credits. There is no limit to how many credits a student can attempt each term, but anything above that 12 credit limit is the financial responsibility of the student.
