Students progress by directly taking EOU coursework on campus, online or through a local community college. MAPs start at the student\u2019s high school with dual credit coursework and then transition to online\/on campus options from the major checksheet. The list of each major\u2019s 100 and 200 level courses is located at the bottom of each MAP so you can start checking off courses right away. The goal is to make sure students know where they are headed in their education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-9 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-50\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-eastern-red-background-color has-text-color has-background no-border-radius wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.eou.edu\/early-college-initiatives\/maps\/\">See the MAPs<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-white-color has-eastern-navy-background-color has-text-color has-background\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color\">Things to remember:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Students have the opportunity to take dual credit classes at their local high school.&nbsp; (If your school does not currently have a partnership with EOU please contact us at <a href=\"mailto:eci@eou.edu\">eci@eou.edu<\/a>.)&nbsp; They also can take on-campus and online courses at a reduced tuition rate (Dual Credit $40 per credit\/ On Campus $75 per credit\/ Online $75 per credit).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This allows students to be able to get a jump start on their higher education experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mountaineer Advantage Plans (MAPs), which help you guide students through various majors at EOU will be added to the site and the handbook during the months of August and September.&nbsp; MAPs help students and parents navigate the courses taken.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the process of a student&#8217;s transition to college a scaffolded approach to support is critical for students to be ready for the remainder of their time in higher education.&nbsp; Through professional development and connections with EOU Early College Specialists, Eastern is ready to make that transition a partnership in order to ensure success.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\"><strong>Deadlines for students can be found on the <a href=\"http:\/\/webdev1.it.eou.edu\/eastern-promise\/students\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"3346\">students<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/webdev1.it.eou.edu\/eastern-promise\/parents\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"3373\">parents<\/a> pages.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group well\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-2 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact us at <a href=\"mailto:eci@eou.edu\">eci@eou.edu<\/a>.&nbsp; <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Need training for students or teachers directly from Early College Specialists? <strong>Let us know!<\/strong><br>If a student is struggling with registration or if it would be beneficial for EOU to provide support to an entire dual credit class or multiple courses during registration time, we\u2019re here to help.
