60 students selected
MOREHEAD, Ky. (April 4, 2017) — The Craft Academy for Excellence in Science and Mathematics at Morehead State University has selected 60 students for its Class of 2019.
A college-level curriculum allows students to finish high school while also completing up to two years of university coursework. Students, who live on campus, were selected based on ACT scores, academic grades from their first two years of high school, interest in advanced STEM careers, responses to application essay questions, interview by the academy selection committee and recommendations from teachers and others who can attest to the student’s need and preparedness for the program.
After two years, students will have earned a minimum of 60 credit hours, finished high school and have an opportunity to further their education at MSU or transfer to any other college/university in Kentucky or elsewhere.
