College in High School (CHS)
The College in High School (CHS) Program enables North Hills’ teachers to work with local universities in a partnership to offer college-level courses. CHS courses provide high school students the opportunity to earn college credits and receive a grade on a university transcript for courses successfully completed at North Hills High School. In many cases, students may transfer these credits to other universities.
Students enrolling in the CHS program will be required to pay a nominal fee to the universities for each course. North Hills High School has concurrent enrollment agreements with Seton Hills University, Point Park University, Carlow University, CCAC, La Roche University and the University of Pittsburgh.
