- Changes in due dates are required to help UWRF become compliant with Early College Credit Program (ECCP) legislation.
- The EECP mandates that high school students adhere to specific dates when applying to participate in the Early College Credit Program. High school students must apply to take college classes and must submit those applications to their school districts by specific dates:
- October 1 for participation in spring courses
- February 1 for summer
- March 1 for fall participation
- Subsequently, to be compliant UWRF must provide class schedules to these students earlier than the high school students’ due dates (above) and earlier than required in past years.
