Alaska Native Science & Engineering Program expanding to three Alaska communities

Thanks to a recent $5 million grant, more students will have access to the Alaska Native Science & Engineering Program. With this funding, ANSEP will expand its full-time Acceleration Academy component to Dillingham, Kotzebue and Juneau this fall. ANSEP will also add a residential element to its Anchorage campus. ANSEP’s Acceleration Academy component allows students to earn their high school diploma while simultaneously earning free college credits.

ANSEP hopes to offer the component in every community with a University of Alaska campus. Students and parents interested in applying for Acceleration Academy (full-time) and other components can learn more at ANSEP.net.
