UTAH STATE TRACK & FIELD CHAMPIONSHIPS

DISTANCE ED and CONCURRENT ENROLLMENT

The CRN’s for Distance Education and Concurrent Enrollment can be found by clicking this link. Please do admissions at UVU and add classes for fall at uvu.edu/concurrent. Next school year’s sophomores who are taking concurrent enrollment classes must complete the Sophomore By Exception form and take the Accuplacer, Plan, Explore or ACT before their classes will be added at UVU. Please finish admissions and registration this spring. It makes the process much easier than waiting until fall when you may miss deadlines. There will be an Accuplacer test on Thursday, August 20, at 2:30pm in room 33, but the 9th grade Explore test can be used for the sophomore application. Any questions contact your AFHS counselor or email Patty Smith at [email protected]. The advisor at UVU for high school students is Sheila Nielson 801.863.6713 or [email protected]. If you are taking Distance Education classes (soon to be called Extended Studies), please fill out the registration card that is required found in room 44.
