Move on When Ready (MOWR) gives qualified students across the state of Georgia the opportunity to take college courses while still enrolled in high school. To qualify for the program, students must be enrolled in an eligible public or private high school or home-study program, be classified as a high school junior or senior, have at least a 3.0 high school academic GPA, and have at least a 970 (combined math and critical reading) on the SAT or 21 composite on the ACT.

Admission decisions for home-schooled students are based on the student’s academic grade point average and SAT or ACT scores. Along with the application for admission, students should send a transcript of high school work and official SAT or ACT scores. If the home school program has been conducted through a formal program, send the official transcript from the program. If the parents have designed the curriculum, the transcript should detail subjects studied, textbooks used and an evaluation of the student’s performance. If a student has taken the GED, these scores should also be submitted. In some cases, the GED may be required to complete the admissions process.

Students who have previously attended Young Harris College, with a gap semester or more between attendance, and wish to re-enter should complete the Application for Readmission. Official transcripts of any coursework completed since leaving YHC must also be submitted to the Office of Admissions. In addition, students must complete the Student Transfer Form if enrolled at another college or university since leaving YHC. 

Young Harris College will accept transient students from other institutions. Students must complete an application for admission and the parent institution must send a letter of transient permission to the Office of Admissions.
