QCHS is inviting students and families to explore exciting academic opportunities at the Dual Enrollment, AP & Electives Fair on Wednesday, January 7, from 6:00–8:00 PM at Quakertown Community High School, 600 Park Avenue, Quakertown.
This informational event is designed to help students plan for their future by learning more about the wide range of courses available at the high school level. Families will have the opportunity to explore nearly 100 course options, including Dual Enrollment, Advanced Placement (AP), and elective offerings that allow students to earn college credits, challenge themselves academically, and discover new interests.
Representatives from partner institutions—including the University of Pittsburgh, Harrisburg University, and Arizona State University—will be on hand to share information about dual enrollment pathways and how students can begin their college journey early, often at a fraction of the cost of traditional college tuition.
The fair is a valuable opportunity for students and families to ask questions, connect directly with educators and college partners, and gain a clearer understanding of how today’s course choices can shape future academic and career goals.
All students and families are encouraged to attend and take advantage of this chance to plan ahead, get informed, and get inspired.

FAFSA Application Completion Night - October 30th
FAFSA Completion Night!
The 2026-2027 college/trade school financial aid application season is well underway! Seniors and their parent/guardian can now complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), which is essential for accessing most federal and state financial aid for higher education. To get started, simply click the link below:
https://studentaid.gov/
Important Note: Please ensure you're completing the 2026-2027 FAFSA (not the 2025-2026 form).
Most families will be able to navigate the FAFSA process independently. However, if you encounter any special circumstances, confusion, or obstacles, the QCHS Future Readiness Center will host a FAFSA Completion Night on October 30th from 6:00 to 7:30 PM. This event provides a dedicated time to work on your FAFSA application using the school's computers or your own laptop. A financial aid expert from the Pennsylvania Higher Education Access Agency (PHEAA) will be on hand to help guide you through the process if needed.
Please note: This is a work session and not a presentation. If you plan to attend, be sure to register in advance using this LINK so we can prepare for the number of families attending.
Before starting the FAFSA, both the student and the parent/guardian will need to create a studentaid.gov account at Studentaid.gov
Please complete this 1-3 days before attending this event.
Not sure which parent needs to fill out the FAFSA form? Click on this LINK to find out: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdm_D7l7vgy4bi3Ov1NpuVmLo0wKXipmu-5x90xPVQqtqvhGA/viewform?usp=dialog
