KAMS Award- Kansas Academy of Mathematics and Science at Fort Hays State University
Each year 40 students are accepted to KAMS, an early-entry to college program, in which students complete their Junior and Senior years of high school by living on campus and taking University-level courses. After two successful years in the program, students will graduate with a High School Diploma and a Certificate of KAMS Completion, which is the equivalent of an Associate’s Degree. These courses are then transferable to continue study at FHSU or another university of the student’s choice.

KAMS Award- Kansas Academy of Mathematics and Science at Fort Hays State University
Each year 40 students are accepted to KAMS, an early-entry to college program, in which students complete their Junior and Senior years of high school by living on campus and taking University-level courses. After two successful years in the program, students will graduate with a High School Diploma and a Certificate of KAMS Completion, which is the equivalent of an Associate’s Degree. These courses are then transferable to continue study at FHSU or another university of the student’s choice.
