Bard College

Bard Early College is a multi-campus network of Bard College that provides adolescents in American public school systems with tuition-free college study in the liberal arts and sciences. The organization replaces the final two years of traditional high school with a rigorous immersion in college coursework to create a seamless pathway to higher edu... cation. Serving approximately 3,900 students across ten degree-granting campuses in five states and Washington, D.C., the network primarily targets students from low-income and historically underrepresented communities. This model is delivered through partnerships with public school systems, allowing students to earn college credit and Associate in Arts degrees while still in high school.Read More
