UVU Concurrent Enrollment

CE classes offered at PHS allow students to register for classes through Utah Valley University (UVU) and earn college credit by successfully completing the course. Students must take the ACT or Accuplacer/ALEKS test before enrolling in CE English or Math. CE classes cannot be dropped after the college withdrawal deadline. If a student decides not to finish a class after the deadline, a failing grade will be recorded on their college transcript. CE credit is not automatic, you must meet the requirements and pass the course. UVU requires a one-time admission fee of $35 plus $5 fee per college credit hour for all CE classes.
