Provost Communication, Monday, May 19, 2025

Good morning and happy Monday. I don’t know about you, but I am riding high from the commencement buzz. Congratulations to all of our graduates, and thanks to our wonderful faculty, staff, and administrators for the incredible commencement ceremonies. One of my favorite moments was listening to the Mariachi music outside of the Redwood Bowl!
 

Dual Enrollment Reminder: High School Scholars Program (HSSP)

As a reminder, we are piloting Dual Enrollment for high school juniors and seniors beginning Fall 2025. For more information, click on this website. To access the intent to register form, click here.

Please spread the word as access to these courses allows our local high school students the opportunity to:

• Save Money - Take up to 2 college courses per semester for just $25 total!

• Save Time – Earn up to 24 units before you graduate — that’s a full year of college credit.

• Get College-Ready – Learn alongside college students and build confidence in a university setting.

• Access Unique Courses in amazing Cal Poly Humboldt facilities - Explore subjects and hands-on experiences like geology, social work, advanced mathematics, business, and the arts, not typically/regularly offered in high school.
