High School /College Dual Enrollment (FORMERLy MOWR) Information And Procedures * Subject to change based on legislative action

WHAT IS THE HIGH SCHOOL/COLLEGE DUAL ENROLLMENT PROGRAM? The Dual Enrollment Program is an opportunity for qualified high school students to earn college credits paid for by the state of Georgia, including a book allowance. Some programs may require fees (program fees) that are not part of the Dual Enrollment funding. The student is “jointly” enrolled in high school and in college. Students can be a full time or part time college student in Fall, Spring, or even Summer semester. The student earns college credits as well as high school credits needed for graduation. Required by law to educate students and parents BY April 1.

WHAT ARE THE PROS AND CONS? Students get a head start on college. Helps students adjust to the college experience. Students may take classes not available at the high school Earning College credits saves money on future college coursework—earlier graduation. CONS Students must keep up with important Junior/Senior High School information. Many colleges prefer a different curriculum path (i.e. AP classes). Colleges will not communicate with parents of Dual Enrollment students. **-If student is failing a college course, it is not the Counselors responsibility to know that. It’s between the student and the parent.

It’s between the student and the parent.

WHAT ABOUT TRANSFER CREDIT? It is the student’s responsibility to talk with colleges regarding their policies on Dual Enrollment credit. Generally, public colleges in the state of Georgia will honor any credit earned at any other Georgia public college when a grade of “C” or better is earned. Private colleges and out of state colleges vary on their acceptance of Dual Enrollment credit.

HOW DOES GRADING WORK? If the student fails a class, it could jeopardize graduation! No points are added to the final grade (exception – 10 pts. are added to Georgia Tech –Calculus II). All Dual Enrollment classes are included on the high school transcript. If colleges provide the high school with letter grades, the high school will transcribe the letter grade to the midpoint of the grading scale. A = 95 B = 85 C = 77 D = 72 F = 35 Students may NOT drop a class without penalty***** -EOCT will be a test based on high school curriculum, not the college and student needs to know that. -Gacollege411 will add the .5 to 4.0 GPA for each college course taken. WE don’t add it to their PRHS transcript. -GA Tech classes are the only classes we go ahead and add the 10 points to their grade.

FULL TIME OR PART TIME? WHICH IS BETTER FOR ME? A student may choose to attend a college full time or part time. A student may choose to take some classes at PRHS and some at college, but there are NO minimums for either. A student may also combine Dual Enrollment with Maxwell or Grayson Tech in a variety of ways as well.

BE AWARE!!! A student must meet the entrance requirements of the college. It is the student’s responsibility to register for the correct classes. The student is responsible for ALL interaction with the college. The college will not speak with a parent or the High School Coordinator regarding the student. Students must have all schedule changes approved by the High School Coordinator. Holidays such as Spring Break will be different from the Gwinnett County holidays. A student must be registered for the equivalent of at least 2.5 high school credits (2, 3-5 hr. college classes + 1, 1-2 hr. college class) of course work to participate in high school extracurricular activities. Students are told they must have all schedule changes approved by high school. It is not the Counselor’s responsibility IF student changes a class and it’s a non-required class, thus their graduation date is changed.
