Welcome to the concurrent enrollment program at Boise State University

Through the Concurrent Enrollment Program (CEP), Boise State University and high schools work together to offer university courses to high school students so they can get an early start on their college career. Started in 1998 with legislative support, the Boise State University Concurrent Enrollment Program has provided thousands of Idaho students the opportunity to complete college-level courses while still in high school. The Boise State Concurrent Enrollment Program’s success is based on the partnership between qualified high school instructors and Boise State University academic departments. Boise State University takes pride in the opportunity to play a significant role in the education of top-performing students in Idaho.
