What is Dual Enrollment?

Dual enrollment is a process by which high school students may enroll in college courses for high school and college credit. The Postsecondary Enrollment Option Act (PA 160 of 1996) establishes the opportunity for Michigan high school students to dual enroll in college courses at Michigan postsecondary institutions when certain criteria are met. High school students need to be continually challenged in order to maintain their academic interests and such challenges must include rigorous academic pursuits. Providing a wider variety of options to students by encouraging and enabling them to dual enroll assures new and exciting academic challenges

How does my student get started?

To begin this process, students must meet with their counselor to discuss eligibility, criteria, and the process of dual enrollment. If they are deemed to be eligible, students must then begin the process of dual enrollment, which includes turning in forms to the counseling office, getting approved, and then applying to their college of choice (only after counselor approval), registering for classes, and beginning classes the following term. 

Students' are expected to be responsible for completing all tasks by specified due dates. Students can request a meeting with their counselor on their Counseling Google Classroom page.
