College Credit Program

Juniors and seniors at The Fulton School can earn college credit through St. Louis University's 1818 Program.

To qualify for the program, students must be in their junior or senior year and have a GPA of at least 3.0. The 1818 program is similar to the Advanced Placement (AP) program, but it is superior, in our view, because a student's ability to earn credit is not contingent on passing a single big assessment at the end of the year. Rather, students take a rigorous college-level course all year, and they are assessed based on their year-long performance in the class. 

Teachers must have an advanced degree to qualify to teach 1818 courses, and they are assigned SLU faculty mentors who provide oversight for their courses and who connect them with resources and professional development opportunities. Most years, we offer Calculus I and a history class for 1818 credit. Visit SLU's 1818 main page for more information.
