WCHS has formed partnerships with George Fox University (GFU) and Northwest Nazarene University (NNU) to offer concurrent high school and college credit through a selected group of classes.  Based on course selection, a student can realistically complete a full year’s worth of college credit by the time they graduate from Westside. For a nominal additional fee, students have the opportunity to earn college credit through their regular Westside class without any additional requirements.  The following 12 classes (11 through GFU and 1 through NNU) are eligible for concurrent credit.
