Holy Family University and Father Judge High School announced a partnership that will provide Judge students with the opportunity to earn an associate’s degree while still in high school.
Judge students will have guaranteed admission to Holy Family upon graduation, provided they meet GPA requirements. Students can enroll in dual-credit courses that count toward both high school and college credits. Faculty and staff from Judge will have access to professional development and degree programs at Holy Family.
Anne Prisco, president of Holy Family, said, “This collaboration with Father Judge High School reflects our mutual dedication to fostering educational excellence. By providing students with the chance to earn college credits while in high school, we are not only supporting their academic ambitions but also ensuring that they have the tools they need for long-term success. We look forward to seeing these students thrive in their studies and future careers.”
“This unique and new opportunity for our students will allow them to earn a college degree while completing their required high school curriculum,” said James Hozier, principal of Judge. “This partnership with Holy Family will push our students ahead of their counterparts in other high schools, giving them an opportunity to truly take on the highest level of academic rigor while using our Salesian Model to develop and evolve into their best versions of themselves. All this while keeping their education affordable, saving them thousands of dollars in post-secondary education.” ••
