Not sure if you qualify for Dual Enrollment? There is no GPA or test score requirement to qualify for Dual Enrollment.
The benefits of Dual Enrollment are many, including: the opportunity to graduate faster by earning college credit while in high school, time and money savings, a chance to explore career fields, experience college on a campus setting, the availability of transferable general education classes, credit earned for passing a course and not just a test, and the ability to choose from more than 380 online and on-campus courses.
High school students can apply and register for Spring Dual Enrollment classes now until classes begin. Classes are offered at Central and Stevens high schools, at Western Dakota Tech (WDT), and online. The first day of class at WDT is Monday, Jan. 13, 2020.
