Early College Academy

 

Glendale Community College has partnered with Herbert Hoover High School in the Early College Academy (ECA). ECA at Hoover High School offers an innovative pathway for students to concurrently earn a high school diploma and 44 college units in the time it takes to graduate high school. ECA integrates college classes into the high school bell schedule, allowing students the opportunity to earn up to 2 years of college courses for FREE - saving parents and students time and money.

The Early College Academy (ECA) is an opportunity for all students. Being ready for ECA requires maturity, independence, and curiosity of what is possible.
