MIDDLETOWN TOWNSHIP EARLY COLLEGE ACADEMY
APPLICATION
This Application should be completed by all current eighth grade students (Class of 2021) who
are looking to obtain an Associate Degree in Arts or Science at the time of HS graduation.
BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND!
Beginning in the 2017-2018 school year, the Middletown Township Public School District in
coordination with Brookdale Community College will offer incoming freshmen the opportunity to
concurrently earn an Associate of Arts or Science degree, while also meeting the requirements to obtain a
New Jersey high school diploma. The Early College Academy is designed to provide students with
access to higher education experiences throughout grades 9-12. During the four years in high school,
students enroll in advanced placement (AP) courses at Middletown High School North or South,
Brookdale courses that concurrently satisfy requirements for their high school diploma, and additional
college-level courses in fulfillment of an Associate degree.
The Early College Academy program was designed by a team of administrators and instructors from both
MTPS and BCC. Two of the Early College Academy’s primary objectives are to create new pathways for
access to rigorous college-level instruction for academically-prepared students and facilitate attainment of
an Associate degree to better position high school graduates for timely completion of coursework towards
a Bachelor or graduate-level degree. To that end, students take high school and advanced placement
classes, along with Brookdale’s Freshman Seminar on the Middletown High School North or South
campus during their freshman and sophomore years. During both their junior and senior years, students
enroll in four high school classes and four college courses at Brookdale’s Lincroft campus. In addition,
an array of academic and student support services will be offered by MTPS and Brookdale Community
College staff throughout grades 9-12.
For further information, please see the District website or the High School Course Selection
Guide you were given prior to course registration for next year.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the appropriate assistant principal.
