Royal High School also offers OnRamps courses in partnership with University of Texas at Austin. OnRamps delivers high-quality distance education to students and teachers. Our dual enrollment courses, flexible to in-person, hybrid and distance learning modalities, have prepared more than 167,000 students in Texas for the challenges and rigor of college.

• College Chemistry I

• Introduction to Geoscience: Earth, Wind, and Fire

• College Algebra

• Elementary Statistical Methods

• Computer Science: Thriving in Our Digital World

• United States History

• Rhetoric and Writing: Reading, Writing, and Research

Students do not need to show college readiness through the TSI to take OnRamps courses. Unlike dual credit courses, OnRamps courses award two separate grades: a weighted high school grade, which is recorded on the high school transcript, and a college grade awarded by the UT professor, which is recorded on a UT college transcript. Students in OnRamps have the opportunity to decline the college credit if they receive a grade for which they are not satisfied, and that grade will never show on a college transcript or be reported when applying to college after high school.  Students will have experienced a college level course with college expectations and deadlines, and will still earn weighted high school credit even if they decline the college credit.
