Dual Enrollment is an acceleration mechanism allowing students to simultaneously earn college credits while fulfilling high school graduation requirements. It is considered the state’s largest scholarship program because it is free of cost. Credits taken through this challenging program are transferable to Florida public and private colleges and universities and some out of state institutions. 

Approval in advance of course registration is required. Students should check with their counselors for information and approval of dual enrollment courses. Students must meet the following eligibility criteria: 

• Must have a 3.0 unweighted grade point average (GPA) to enroll in college credit courses
• Pass the appropriate section of the Post-Secondary College Readiness Test (PERT), SAT or ACT Pass the FSA ELA with a 3 or higher
• Have permission from the parent/guardian, high school principal and counselor 
• Meet additional admissions criteria established by the post-secondary institution.
• Understand that the amount of work necessary to succeed in dual enrollment courses will be greater than in high school courses

The college courses selected by the student must count toward high school graduation. Students will earn bonus points equivalent to those earned in Advanced Placement courses.
