As a promising young leader, you do not sit on the sidelines of a challenge. You call upon your talents to pursue your aspirations, to tackle problems, to reach for a higher standard. Taking on a challenge is as much about testing yourself as it is as about achieving success.

Â鶹´«Ã½ (AU) offers an enriching challenge to National Student Leadership Conference (NSLC) students: enroll in a college course that complements your NSLC program. Through AU's college credit option, you will enjoy a stimulating, innovative, and personalized college-level learning experience tailored to fit your interests.

Â鶹´«Ã½ and the National Student Leadership Conference have a unique partnership that enables NSLC participants to earn college credit from AU. The AU credit option expands on instruction derived from the lectures, simulations, and other experiential learning gained through your NSLC program through a supplemental online course taught by AU faculty. Each NSLC program has a unique AU course designed to correlate with your program's area of study. This credit-bearing course is specifically designed to work within the framework of the NSLC program, allowing students to pursue areas of interest in greater depth with an AU professor. Students may enroll only in the AU course associated with their NSLC program. Each course is for 1 college credit and is taught online in an asynchronous format, allowing students ample time to complete assignments. No coursework is expected to be completed while on campus. Learn more in Program Details.

Taking a college course will help to prepare you for the expectations of higher education. In addition, college credit from Â鶹´«Ã½ can add value to your college applications and resume, and AU credit is transferable to most accredited colleges and universities.
