How to Register through the UHS Program

Registration for Fall 2025, and Year 2025-26 is now closed. 

At the beginning of the Fall/Year and Spring semesters, the UHS Office sends a 鈥淲elcome Back鈥� email, with registration dates and instructions, to High School Primary Contacts and Instructors. This information is relayed to the students through a number of different methods, depending on the High School (emails, flyers, posts to parent and student portals, etc.) 

Note: UHS will not process any registrations that are submitted after the registration deadline. Any students who submit registrations after the deadline will not be registered for UHS credit. In addition, UHS does not offer retroactive registration.

University in the High School (UHS) courses are college courses; therefore, all Farmingdale State College (FSC) course prerequisites apply.

Please review this registration Prerequisite guide: Prerequisite Guide

Registration Fee Structure 

Program fees are payable by credit card or money order only. If you do not have access to a credit card and wish to pay by an alternative method, please contact the UHS Office as soon as possible. All fees must be paid in full prior to the payment deadline listed for any given term. If you do not pay the UHS course fee(s), you will not be registered for FSC credit. Students enrolled in grants or third-party payment programs, see section below 鈥淕rants & Third-Party Payments.鈥�

Income-based Fee Reduction Program

For eligible students. Program fees are determined based on household size and annual income, as outlined in the , and are subject to change.

The fee is determined by the credits assigned to the course.

Fee Structure for 2025-26 Academic Year
Course Credits	Full-Fee	Income-based Fee Reduction Program
1	$70.00	$35.00
2	$140.00	$70.00
3	$210.00	$105.00
4	$280.00	$140.00

NOTE: To maintain the high level of support that FSC offers schools, students, and families, we must raise the UHS course credit fee. Starting in academic year 2025-26, UHS courses will cost $70/credit. The UHS course fee is still significantly less than regular college tuition. UHS courses cost 76% less than FSC on-campus courses. In addition, students who participate in the Income-based Fee Reduction Program will continue to be eligible for a 50% discount on UHS fees. 

If a student does not submit their official Income-based Fee Reduction Program documentation, the cost of the credit will be $70. The discount will not be applied until after the official documentation has been submitted to UHS and verified by UHS staff. 

Grants & Third-Party Payments 

During online registration, you must indicate if you participate in a grant or third-party payment program (e.g., Smart Scholars,etc). The option will only appear if you attend a high school where this is offered. If you answer 鈥淵es,鈥� a high school administrator must verify your participation. No bill will be issued if you are verified. If no verification is provided, a payment link will be sent at a later date.

Since UHS courses are not categorized as tuition, enrollment does not impact future Financial Aid. 51吃瓜 counts them as fees; therefore they are ineligible for a 1098-T or any other tax form.

Withdrawal from UHS Program

Registration for University in the High School courses is handled in accordance with SUNY policies. Once you submit the registration form and proper payment, you are enrolled in the course, and are responsible for the registration fee.

If, for any reason, you want or need to drop the University in the High School course (whether or not you continue to participate in the high school course) you must tell us in writing. The following financial liability schedule will apply:

Courses that are dropped during the first week of classes will not appear on a student's transcript.

• During the first week of classes students will receive a 100% refund for courses that are dropped and for schedules that are cancelled.
• During the second week of classes students will be entitled to a 70% refund.
• During the third week they are entitled to a 50% refund and during the fourth week they are entitled to receive a 30% refund.
• After the fourth week of classes students are fully liable for all program fees.

The withdrawal process begins on the second week of classes. Starting the second week of classes students who initiate a withdrawal, course or semester withdrawal will receive a "W" for that course on their transcript. The financial liability will be determined by the refund schedule in effect at the time the withdrawal is processed.

Also in accordance with University policies, outstanding financial liability to the University results in a hold being placed on student records. This means that future registrations are not permitted and transcript requests will not be honored until the liability has been satisfied.

Course Evaluation

You will be asked to complete 鈥淓nd-of-Term鈥� course evaluations via a link at the end of the semester. The UHS Office will provide high school staff and instructors with the link to share with you. Results of course evaluations are only shared with UHS instructors, not anyone else. This is consistent with on-campus practice.
