What can we help with?
Get in touch
Enroll a student
Start the application online. It takes about fifteen minutes and includes the Iowa ESA election.
Request an intake meeting or tour
Step two of admissions — and the right place to ask every hard question you have.
Teach or volunteer with us
We are actively recruiting instructors and parent volunteers.
Host a Higher Institute placement
Employers in health sciences, technology, engineering, and the trades: we would like to talk.

Our commitment
Ask us anything, including the uncomfortable questions
We publish our full accreditation submission, our handbook, and our instructional model openly because a school asking families to trust it with their children should be willing to show its work.
