Dual Enrollment at SJRSC

What is Dual Enrollment ?

Dual enrollment is a program where eligible high school students attend college classes and earn high school credit and college credit at the same time. The credits that students earn must be applicable toward high school graduation and acceptable toward an Associate or Baccalaureate degree.
The courses are taken through SJR State, and count for BOTH high school and college credit. Therefore, the credits earned shows up on the student's NHS high school transcript and the SJR college transcript.

  3. Permission from a parent or guardian and your high school counselor.

                               Things to consider before enrolling DE classes: Principles of Participation – Responsibilities

  • Students will start their college career and GPA. Grades earned in DE classes will impact the high school GPA and the college GPA. Both GPAs will be sent to colleges when they complete their application.
  • DE students are considered college students. SJR is a separate school from NHS.  Their professors do not communicate with parents or school counselors regarding assignments and grades.  The do not input grades in HAC or follow NHS test retake policies.
  • All grades earned are a part of the student’s permanent college transcript.  If students struggle in a course and withdraw, they will earn a W on their transcript which can have negative implications for college admissions, financial aid eligibility, and place students on Bright Futures and other scholarship probation once they are in college.  (Bright Futures College GPA Requirements)
  • DE students must be responsible and independent learners.  THE STUDENT needs to make sure that they meet ALL DEADLINES (application, test scores, course registration, book rental, etc) by checking for updates in the Dual Enrollment Schoology group, check their SJR email daily, and check their “concise student schedule” for accuracy.
  • The student will need transportation to and from the college campus.

504/IEP Accommodations: SJR Website for Students with Disabilities

SJR is a separate entity from NHS. Students who have a current 504 plan or IEP with NHS will need to make an appointment with SJR Accommodations Department to get approval. Students who take DE classes with SJR will not have a 504 plan or IEP accommodations unless they make an appointment with SJR and get approval with SJR. SJR will decide what accommodations are allowed in SJR DE classes.

Students who earn a D/F/W in a DE class will be placed on probation in the DE program. The student will have to fill out a petition on SJR website to be reviewed. Students are only allowed ONE D/F/W in DE classes, a SECOND D/F/W will result in the student being INELIGIBLE for DE classes.
