PLEASE NOTE:
  • EXCITING NEWS FOR 2023-24:  Penn Highlands has announced that they will be piloting an expanded waiver procedure. This means that students can enroll in college-level math and ENG 110 English Comp I without placement exams. Students will be automatically cleared for ENG 110 and math courses up to MAT 145.
  • Senior year English (ENG 200) requires a previous purchase of junior year English (ENG 110).
  • Spanish IV requires a previous purchase of Spanish III.
  • Physiology requires a Biology prerequisite.  If you need to prove this course, contact the Guidance Office to have a transcript sent to PHCC.
