13. Does this A.A. track include all high school courses needed to earn a high school diploma (or home school equivalent)?

2020-07-29T20:17:30+00:00

No, but it does include a number of them. The A.A. track includes all the courses needed to earn an Associate's degree while in high school (or in a home school equivalent). It does not include all of the courses typically required for a high school diploma (or home school program diploma or equivalent), such as high school math and science. However, the A.A. track does include a number of courses which may substitute for various high school courses. For example, the A.A. track Great Books courses may substitute (that is, satisfy the high school requirement for) English and social studies. [...]

10. Are those Holy Apostles courses all available online?

2022-05-11T17:50:55+00:00

Yes. They are also available at the campus in Cromwell, Connecticut. However, not all of them are available every semester, so to determine which are available each semester, go to Degree Plans and look for the semesters indicated in the parentheses after the Holy Apostles course titles.  Holy Apostles' online learning environment allows students to pursue their education 100% online. Courses are taught asynchronously which means that there are no "live" login times required. Their online degree programs have no residency requirements which makes it easy for you to learn whenever and wherever it is most convenient for you! Students are [...]

9. What Holy Apostles courses would those 15 credits consist of, and when could I take them?

2021-05-20T13:57:58+00:00

You may take the Holy Apostles courses when you are in the 11th (including in the summer after completing the Great Books Romans year) and/or 12th grades, or later. Each of these courses is one semester. A.A. track students would need to complete 15 credits from Holy Apostles, specifically, the courses listed at Degree Plans.  There are three A.A. Degree Plans: one for an Associates Degree in Liberal Arts; one for an Associates Degree in Liberal Arts which includes all four of Fr. Fessio's Theology Online courses; and one for an Associate's Degree in Theology.

6. I thought Associate’s degrees required 60 credits, not 48?

2020-07-29T20:13:49+00:00

Correct. In fact, Holy Apostles will accept 45 (not 48) of the Great Books Program courses towards their Associate’s degree. The other 15 credits are earned directly from Holy Apostles College online.

5. What courses do I need to take to earn the 60 college credits during my high school years, and what grades do I need to achieve?

2020-07-29T20:13:17+00:00

All A.A. track students begin with the Great Books Program courses, which are fully described elsewhere on this LINK. The first course is entitled the Great Books of the Ancient Greeks.  There are 4 years (8 semesters) in the Great Books program. Each semester has been recommended for 6 hours of college credit by the American Council for Education (ACE CREDIT), which therefore total to 48 credits for successfully completing the entire Great Books Program.  Numerous colleges and universities, including Holy Apostles College & Seminary, accept these credits for transfer towards their degrees. It is the policy of Holy Apostles not to accept any undergraduate credits [...]
