SUPA Establishes New International School Partnership

Syracuse University Project Advance (SUPA) is proud to announce a brand new partnership with Taipei FuHsing Private High School, located in Taiwan. This innovative collaboration will allow students to earn college credits while completing their secondary education, providing a significant advantage as they pursue higher education and future career opportunities.

Through this partnership, Taipei FuHsing students will have the opportunity to enroll in select Syracuse University courses through SUPA, gaining valuable exposure to university coursework and faculty. The program is designed to complement the students’ existing high school curriculum, offering a seamless transition to higher education. By earning college credits during their high school years, students can potentially reduce the time and cost associated with obtaining a bachelor’s degree.

 “SUPA is delighted to partner with Taipei FuHsing Private High School, a leading secondary school in the region, to offer students in their Bilingual Program the opportunity to engage in authentic university coursework, earn college credit, and gain confidence in their college readiness skills while experiencing a U.S. academic curriculum,” says Dr. Christina Parish, Director of Project Advance.

SUPA faculty and staff welcomed two instructors from the high school to its Summer Institute so that they could become familiar with the SU curriculum, course pedagogy, assessment practices, and campus resources. The high school currently offers General Biology I, and SU faculty will be visiting remotely this academic year with Taipei FuHsing’s Syracuse University students.

“We are excited to partner with SUPA, bringing an exciting opportunity to our high school students. Through this collaboration, students can enroll in Syracuse University courses right on our campus during their regular school day. With two adjunct faculty members from our school involved, students will experience a smooth transition and gain a valuable head start on their higher education journey,” says James Wu, Principal of Taipei FuHsing Private School.

SUPA is committed to supporting international high students’ success and access to U.S. higher education opportunities and to developing vibrant academic partnerships with interested institutions. For more information on how to become a partner school, please visit our website.
