Typically, only juniors and seniors with an average of B or better are eligible to register for UHS Program courses. In exceptional cases, at the discretion of the Associate Director for Administration and the appropriate department liaison, sophomores with advanced academic standing may also register. In order to determine a sophomore’s eligibility, a letter of support from the student’s school counseling office and teacher must accompany the request for sophomore registration. A copy of the student’s high school transcript must also be provided to the UHS Office for review. Notification with registration materials will be returned to the teacher if a sophomore does not qualify. UHS courses are considered to be post regents or equivalent as appropriate for the level of the UHS course. Students are not eligible to register for Science Research courses until the summer prior to their junior year. Freshmen are not eligible to register for any UHS Program courses.

Students who register for courses through the UHS Program are subject to the same academic expectations as students at the University at Albany campus. Recorded student grades for all courses result in a permanent academic record at the University. Withdrawals from courses in accordance with the schedules located on this website and published in the Student/Parent Guide each year are the responsibility of the individual student and must be put in writing and sent to and confirmed by the UHS Program office.
