Nick Cannon is going back to school.

The “America’s Got Talent” host has enrolled as a freshman at Howard University’s communications school and plans to graduate in 2020, Page Six has learned.

The historically black university is working with Cannon, 35, on his schedule since he’ll be juggling television shows and other projects.

“He is going to be on campus taking classes, obviously it’s not going to be every day,” a source told us. “But he is going to be on campus as much as possible.”

Despite his celebrity status, the father of two went through the same application process as everyone else.

“No one gets special treatment, no matter who they are,” the source added.

During the 2014-2015 academic year, Howard’s admissions department estimated yearly cost to run students around $47,483 (which includes tuition, mandatory fees, books and supplies, meals and board, course-related fees, loan fees, incidentals, room and local transportation).

Cannon broke the news on Sunday by posting a snapshot of himself next to a Howard University sign, while carrying a pricey Louis Vuitton backpack.

The star told Page Six of the decision to get his degree, “Nelson Mandela once said, ‘Education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world,’ and with that said I have officially enrolled at Howard University.”

I am always seeking new challenges and continual growth and decided to obtain my first college degree from an institution that had a proven legacy of producing great minds. I have friends, mentors and colleagues who attended Howard University. I have heard about the famed Howard Homecoming since I was a kid growing up in California and knew that Howard would be the perfect place for me to further my education. I look forward to this new journey in my life and am excited about the possibilities ahead.

It seems after his first day on the Washington, DC, campus, Cannon hopped on a plane out of town. “Turning these airplane into school buses,” he captioned a snap aboard a flight Monday night.
