About the Program
Mohonasen offers a number of options for students to earn college credit while still attending high school. One of those programs is 1 + 1, a program run in conjunction with Schenectady County Community College (SCCC) that allows a dual enrollment in three areas of study. Through 1 + 1, students work toward their high school diploma while at the same time earning an entire year of college credits in an area of interest. Students in the 1 + 1 program could then enter SCCC to complete an associate’s degree in one year or directly transfer the courses to another college or university. To learn more about Mohonasen’s 1 + 1 program, please see your school counselor.
