1. CONCURRENT ENROLLMENT

2.  “Concurrent enrollment” means a student is simultaneously enrolled in a local education provider and in an institute of higher education or career and technical courses.  “Concurrent enrollment” means FREE college classes to qualifying students!  With “concurrent enrollment” the student will receive both college level credit as well as high school credit for each college class successfully passed. WHAT IS CONCURRENT ENROLLMENT?

3.  Any student who is “college ready”.  “College Ready” is determined by the student’s ability to place at appropriate Accuplacer levels.  Grade level requirements… WHO IS ELIGIBLE?

4.  9th graders are not eligible for college classes.  10th graders are limited to 6 college credit hours during the year.  11th and 12th graders are limited to 12 college credit hours per year. GRADE LEVEL REQUIREMENTS

5. Students who fail to complete the course or fail the course must reimburse their school. Students who withdraw past the deadline must reimburse their school. A student who fails two college courses will not be allowed to take a third. Students are highly recommended to enroll in a Guarantee Transfer course. WHAT’S THE CATCH?
