CSUB-Chevron High School Academy

Introduction

The CSUB-Chevron High School Academy (HSA) provides Kern High School District students the opportunity to take CSUB college level courses in science, engineering, or mathematics.

The HSA will resume Fall Quarter 2013, is free to the KHSD student, carries college credit (up to 15 Quarter Units, transferable), and is offered only to students with the appropriate course pre-requisites, usually the last or second to last high school class in the subject. One year, 3-Quarter sequences will be provided in Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, and Physics. These are the beginning sequences for the college major.

Textbooks and transportation to and from CSUB is not provided.
