DUAL ENROLLMENT

Dual enrollment is an articulated acceleration mechanism open to secondary students who are attending public high school. To enroll in dual enrollment academic courses, students must demonstrate a readiness to successfully complete college-level course work and have attained a qualifying grade point average. In order to determine the high school equivalency and the high school credit awarded for postsecondary courses completed through dual enrollment, please refer to the most current Dual Enrollment Equivalency List.

College-level dual enrollment courses are weighted the same as Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, and Advanced International Certification of Education courses when grade point averages are calculated. All WOHS students who meet the eligibility requirements have opportunity to earn college credits for free through dual enrollment coursework with the below listed colleges and universities.  

We encourage students to consult with their parents/legal guardians and their Guidance Counselor to determine eligibility for the challenge of college-level coursework. 

Benefits of Dual Enrollment
